About Me

Josey Jessee (b. 2000) is an artist currently living in Raleigh, NC. Jessee was born and raised in Carrboro, North Carolina, until she left to attend college at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in 2018, which she graduated from with a BFA in Painting in 2022.  

Jessee has been immersed in the fine arts since birth. Her mother is an art collector and her father a photographer. She was encouraged to create by her parents and, as such, has been making paintings since she was four. This art-positive environment ultimately led her to study many different art disciplines in college. 

Jessee works with acrylic in abstract ways and with oil paint in studies of introspection. She employs a strong use of color in her work, resulting in vibrant compositions. Besides traditional media, she has started to work with new media art, mainly digital and video.
