Cape Cod Life Magazine Article

Cape Cod Life Magazine did an artist profile on me in their latest Arts Issue. The article talks about my new series as well as what’s happening at the Belushi Pisano Gallery. It’s a great local magazine that’s a good resource for deciding which galleries on the cape to go check out. So, pick up a copy to see my article  - or click on the link above.

My next show is a solo exhibit at the Belushi Pisano Gallery (martha’s vineyard, ma). Opening reception: Friday, August 1 (5-8pm). The show will continue through August 15. Hope to see you there!

Rita at Cool Mom Picks wrote a nice blurb about my artwork on her website. The ladies over at coolmompicks.com track down great non-mainstream good for fabulous moms. It’s a wonderful website with a ton of cool items for the little ones, the chic moms, and…of course for all those cool dads out there!

I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be participating in a very exciting show at Lark & Key Gallery in Charlotte, NC. It’s a group show with a hugely talented mix of artists that will be showcasing not only their beautiful works of art, but also the music that inspired them to create their work. If you’re in the Charlotte area - It’s a must see show!

SONGCATCHER: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION OF SOUND

JULY 4th - AUGUST 31st (opening reception Friday July 11th, 6-9pm)

Thirty (plus) artists from around the country will be offering art, pottery, jewelry - or whatever medium strikes a chord - celebrating the diversity of music and its creative influence on their work. The show also aims to expose viewers to a world of music they may not be aware of. Various bands and djs will be playing during the opening and at the gallery crawls while the exhibition is up.

In an effort to give back to the community Lark & Key will also donate a portion of sales to the Belmont Community Center YWCA Afterschool Program. We will be working with the program director to provide funds for art and music related education for the children in order to encourage their creative spirit.

I’m excited to announce that I have just opened my new etsy shop (www.jessicapisano.etsy.com) that sells prints of my original mixed media works. I have several good friends who have etsy shops and I was glad to see that they all have been doing really well. Etsy is an enormous online venue of fantastic handmade arts and craft items. Since looking at the site I have found so many amazing works by phenomenal artists from around the globe. I highly recommend taking a peek at etsy’s artist shops. If you’re looking for unique jewelry pieces, fine art prints, cards, handmade accessories - etsy is the place to find cool original works of art!

The gallery girls at Belushi Pisano Gallery have had a nice long winter break. Me: in the studio; and my gallery coordinator (kali): on the Island enjoying herself landscaping. But it’s that time of year again - the summer season is back and we’ve reopened the gallery doors to the public. For this year’s season we’ve made a few changes. We have extended the gallery’s showroom space so there’s more art to enjoy (see the “red room” below). We have also added a few new artists including, Ellen Granter, Andrea Williams, Heather Lindsey Stewart, and Amy Craven Ward.

We are now open on a daily basis from 10am to 6pm. Closing for the winter season after Columbus Day weekend. Stop by for one of our opening receptions this summer. Our show schedule is as follows:

June 20 - July 2: Group Show (opening reception: June 20th - 5 to 8pm)

July 3 - 17: Jennifer J.L. Jones & McDermott Glass (opening reception: July 3rd - 5 to 8pm)
