About Jess Peoples:
Jess Peoples has spent her lifetime enamored with art and uses nature as inspiration for much of her work. Her paintings are her way to uplift to the community and also to bring awareness to land preservation efforts in and around Nashville, Tennessee. Her hope is that her art reflects on nature, storytelling and the general tenacity of nature and humans to get through different seasons.
Jess currently paints out of her home alongside her two children, her husband and her dog, Larry.
