Hello!
My name is Jessica Beck, and I have been teaching at PCC since 2019.
I mainly teach painting and drawing, but have been known to moonlight in figure drawing and painting, and watercolor.
I grew up in Hawaii, and am an avid snowboarder and surfer. I went to art school at the University of Hawaii, and the New York Academy of Art. I’ve been here in the PNW since 2012.
I have knowledge and experience in all types of painting and drawing, contemporary, back through Renaissance, and even a bit of Medieval!
I am also very knowledgeable in human anatomy as it relates to making art with people in it.
If you want to see what my art is about, FYI, I paint under my family name, Jessica Damsky.
If you’d like to read an article about my art and what I paint about, I had a writeup in Beautiful Bizarre Magazine?!
Here is my personal art website

Bonus: my cat does like to make his presence known in my zoom classes, so here he is:
