About Jessica

Welcome to my studio— rooted in memory, faith, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.

I’m Jessica Puma, a professional artist based in Merchantville, New Jersey. My work is a reflection of the places I’ve walked, the people I’ve loved, and the stories that continue to shape me. Each painting is a prayer, a tribute, and a conversation—whether it’s a floral still life honoring my grandfather’s legacy, or a triptych inspired by the ancient stones of Rome.

I specialize in oil painting and mixed media, creating thick, impasto surfaces while exploring my subjects in an abstract and sometimes Impressionist manner. My purpose is to evoke emotion and memory within my paintings. My palette has evolved through travels to Paris and Rome, where the architecture, light, and spirit of each city left a lasting imprint on my soul. I’m especially drawn to the expressive power of color and texture—how a single mark can carry grief, joy, or reverence.

My home is both sanctuary and studio. It’s where I paint, write, and reflect. It’s also where I honor my family’s legacy. Through my art, I connect with collectors who value emotional storytelling, spiritual depth, and the timeless beauty of European-inspired work.

Thank you for being here. I hope my paintings speak to something sacred in you—and that they find a loving place in your home, your heart, and your collection.
