Jessica Olpp

Jessica grew up in the beautiful bushlands of Warrandyte, and has lived and worked in France. She is currently based in Caulfield North, Melbourne. 

Jessica has always nurtured her creative side through dance, poetry and the study of foreign languages. She is a self-taught artist who began painting as a means of self-expression, with a view of creating moments of calm in her busy life as a French teacher. 

Jessica is inspired by the colour palettes of both Australia and France, beautiful skies, memories of overseas travel as well as the simplicity of still life moments.

In 2024 Jessica was a finalist in The Doyles Art Award (Still Life) and was invited to exhibit with the Toowoomba Gallery at The Affordable Art Fair (Brisbane & Sydney.)

In 2023 she was a finalist in the 9x5 Landscape Prize at Waverley Woollahra Art School, a finalist in the Mini Series Art Prize at The Corner Store Gallery and a finalist in The Next Big Thing art prize at The Toowoomba Gallery.
