About
Jessica Monroe is best known for her large-scale oil paintings inspired by the natural world.

Exploring delicate and endangered ecosystems, Monroe often works outdoors using watercolor, pastels and a camera, which inform her studio practice.
Monroe holds a Bachelor of Arts from Southwestern University and studied painting at New York University and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She collaborates often with local nature centers. For over twenty years, Monroe has exhibited her work throughout Texas and the Rio Grande Valley, and taught art to students of all ages.
