Jessica Becker is an Artist from Atlantic Beach, FL and currently living in Orlando, FL. She was voted "Best Local Visual Artist" and "Best Local Public Art" for her mural at restaurant TacoLu in FOLIOWEEKLY Best of Jax 2017 Magazine. Voted “#1 Artist in 904” in VOID Magazine 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2013 Issue. She knew at the age of five that she wanted to be an artist and taught herself to paint after receiving minimal art classes in school. She started painting in 2004 and paints in many styles as well as many sizes on different surfaces.
Her passion is painting 3D canvases where she adds materials to the portraits she paints. She has a degree in Cosmetology and uses that skill to get the hair to match the portraits perfectly on the canvas. The rest of her process is learned through trial and error which she uses different elements to make the pieces look realistic. She has a variety of paint styles and challenges herself through each project she is faced with to make it more unique than the last and to give the impression of something never seen before. You’ll never get bored with her work!
