Jessie Foakes

I’ve been painting for just shy of 3 years whilst being in the tattoo industry for the last 10 years, during covid it gave me a little free time to pick up some new tools and play to see what I could create. I work mainly with acrylic and a little bit of spray paint! I’ve never used a paint brush I’ve always snapped up bits of wood/rulers or anything I can get my hands on and slowly I’m playing with pallet knifes, although my favourite tool at the moment is a trusty bread knife. I love basing my works on obvious objects and seeing how far I can push them. I don’t really have idea in mind other than getting really stuck in and seeing where it takes me. It’s how I work in all aspects of life if I’m honest! Running a muck with everything and just enjoying the process.
