About

Jessie Marie’s artistic journey began at a young age through both performing and visual arts. Her passion for photography was sparked after receiving a camera from her grandparents, which she brought along on a formative trip to New York City. In high school and college, she worked as a staff photographer for a web-based journal, covering major sporting events including the X Games and international skiing and snowboarding competitions.

She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from the Corcoran College of Art and Design in Washington, D.C., where she began her decades-long exploration of two distinct bodies of work: Color Abstraction and Light, Line, and Texture. After graduation, Jessie paused public exhibition of her work to focus on her family, but continued to create.

Inspired by her grandfather—who began sculpting and exhibiting art in his eighties —Jessie Marie returned to exhibiting her work. In 2023 Jessie Marie and her family moved to New Orleans, where she found inspiration and connection within the city’s vibrant arts community. In 2025, she and her husband founded Jessie Marie Fine Art, LLC, and in September of the same year, they launched The Jessie Marie Fine Art Gallery which is dedicated to creating bespoke art experiences in collaboration with New Orleans’ rich performing and visual arts community.
