She is currently based in Caulfield North, Melbourne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJessica and I have been friends for a while now, connected through the Instagram art community and a few different shows along the way. She is such a warm, kindhearted and encouraging friend. Last year I was fortunate enough to meet her in person when she made the effort to come along to my opening of ‘\u003ci\u003eConversations With Echoes'\u003c\/i\u003e at Brunswick Street Gallery—it was so lovely to finally meet her and her partner and spend time talking about art face to face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer work draws on the colour palettes of both Australia and France, beautiful skies, memories of travel, and the quiet simplicity of still life moments. I adore the French influence in her practice, and I’m lucky enough to own one of her landscapes, which hangs in a quiet space in my home—never short of a compliment from visitors (who often ask if I painted it myself, and I’m always tempted to say yes!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eArtist Statement\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJessica Olpp is a Melbourne-based visual artist whose work reflects a quiet lyricism and deep appreciation for stillness. Raised among the bushlands of Warrandyte and having lived and worked in France, Jessica brings an introspective and poetic quality to her paintings. A lifelong creative, she began painting as a meditative balance to her career as a French teacher. Her background in classical dance, poetry, and foreign languages informs her visual art practice, which is rich in emotional nuance, atmosphere, and a sense of calm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eArtist Bio\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJessica’s artwork has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions across Australia, including a recent solo show at The Victorian Artists’ Society.
