My name is Jessica Perner (formerly known as Ward) and I have been creating and selling art professionally since 2008. I exhibit in galleries internationally as well as take on commissioned illustrations. I went to art school and graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art - Drawing with a minor in Illustration. I was in Graduate school for drawing until I moved to Los Angeles and began showing in dozens of galleries like La Luz de Jesus Gallery, Copro Gallery, and The Hive Gallery & Studios just to name a few. I now live in Austria and I enjoy traveling, that is a big part of what fuels my inspiration. I enjoy art, video games, horror movies, thrash & industrial metal, museums, cosmetics, fitness and cats and will often draw things inspired by them as well. I am a member of The Strange Dreams Surreal Art Collective and The Memento Tea Art Collective, where we host online art auctions on Facebook. I am a Co-host of The Paintingloft Podcast where fellow artist Scott Holloway and I discuss all things art and interview artists & collectors. I also promote art via Red Siren Art News on Facebook. I have created two tarot cards for the 78 Tarot Global Art Collaboration.
