Hello there! My name is Tessah.

Born in New England, I was raised on rocky shores and saltwater air. Listening to myths of mermaids and sea dragons while the tide carried the sun on it’s waves.

My mother made sure I always had a pencil in hand and paper nearby. I have her to thank for supporting and kindling the passion I have today.

In my bodies of work you’ll find subjects from fantasy and folklore to studies of the natural world and everything in between. I’m often inspired by musical lyrics, textures, emotions, colors and more. I never know where the next inspiration will come from!

One thing is sure; I can never stay away from art for too long. When I’m not holding a pencil or a paintbrush you might find me at The Wishing Weaver, twisting metals around precious minerals or fossils to make something new.

Most of all, I love the connection art offers us as humans, which transcends the constraints of language, culture and bias.

Welcome, to my little home on the internet. Won’t you come in?
