Jess Deback is a prairie born mixed media artist living on Treaty 6 Territory in Saskatoon Sk. Her artwork draws inspiration from the textures and rhythms of everyday life, often weaving together various materials and techniques. In addition to her personal artistic practice, Jess is passionate about nurturing creativity in others. She teaches art classes for children and hosts painting events for both kids and adults that help everyone have fun and tap into their inner artist. When not creating art, Jess spends her time hanging out with her partner, two teenage sons and their neurotic German Sheppard named Moose.
