Jess Hough is a local carpenter/handyman and artist based in Moab. Primarily an illustrator, she’s recently been working on developing cheap and accessible methods for at-home printmaking with DIY art supplies and tools made from reclaimed/recycled materials. Jess enjoys working on landscapes and environments inspired by red rock canyons and all the amazing natural features of Utah's deserts. During her tenure as 2023 Community Artist in Parks, visitors could see Jess perform any step of the printmaking process: sketching a scene, finalizing designs, making plates, and even printing from her plates using her homemade printing press. Dates for Jess's spring park visits are available below. For dates in summer and beyond, please check back later. |
