Needlepoint art with a point of view

Welcome to my site where you’ll find whimsical, witty, and poignant canvases that you can finish to show off your own point of view in your home. Be sure to visit often. I’m always working on new designs and will share them here. Check out what’s new in the shop.

About Jessica

Jessica has been an ardent needleworker for years. After being a shop painter for a local needlepoint shop and being encouraged by family, friends, and devoted customers, she embarked on her own line of canvases to spread her love of needlepoint. Jessica grew up in Clearwater, Florida, went to the University of Alabama, and moved to Richmond, VA, where she worked at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. Drawing on her love of art, design, textiles, animals, popular culture, and childhood memories, Jessica hand paints an array of stitch-painted canvases! She currently resides in Richmond with her husband Jon and two daughters, Charlotte and Eleanor, their two labs, Knox and Marigold, and Noodle the ginger tabby.
