. Studio Grooves . . It’s a balancing act. I’ve been out of town in Blue River for a week taking a glacier guiding course with the @canadian_ski_guide_association, and now I’m back in Squamish getting my hands and feet back in the studio. I wasn’t feeling like being inside today - the autumn weather is crisp and pristine at the moment in Squamish. . But that’s the balance, and this dance is a choice. Progress is a process, and I feel lucky to have the opportunity to work on a holiday. Turn up the volume, and cut yourself loose. . Lots in the works for this fall… stay tuned. . #whenimnotinthemtns #jessagilbertart #getoutoftownvibe @burton @skidagram @squamish.arts (at Squamish, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiIpOwtB-lO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

. A Door Able :: Collab with @dominikkalita . #grannyonthecans . I love making elements, like doors and pipes, disappear into murals. I love creating artwork one can interact with and move through. A new environment built on color, shape, and line. Adorable. 😉 . I had so much fun collaborating with @dominikkalita as part of @squamish.arts Arts Walk 2022! Grateful to be a part of a community full of color and creativity - thanks @squamish.arts for investing in making our town bold and bright! . #jessagilbertart #getoutoftownvibe #whenimnotinthemtns @the.lot @cliffsidecidersquamish (at Cliffside Cider) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChKZWRjr9MM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

. Heavy Hands :: Work In Progress . #jessagilbertart . I’m rounding corners on a new mural in Vancouver at @steamworksmountpleasant. It’s been such a great week back in the city and revisiting all the old haunts. . I love this city, and the new Steamworks location is right in the heart of it in Mount Pleasant. Stoked to see this space come together! . #grannyonthecans #getoutoftownvibe #whenimnotinthemtns #homestretch @steamworksmountpleasant (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgMpK1wL3Yt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

. Endless Lines, Endless Winter :: Studio Grooves . #jessagilbertart . I’ve been losing track of time in the studio digging into new paintings and drawings inspired by the short days of winter. It feels so good to get back in the groove. . New artwork is heading to hang at @mountcurriecoffee in Pemberton, and on my website. . #whenimnotinthemtns #getoutoftownvibe @burton @skidagram 📸: @joel_loverin (at Wind Studio - Print & Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeZJIWsJsYL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

. Up Close and Personal :: Work In Progress . #jessagilbertart . Digging into the studio the last couple weeks has felt like a return home to revisit the past. It’s been so fun to pour out memories from the winter and time outside. . New artwork is heading up to @mountcurriecoffee in Pemberton this weekend. Thanks to everyone I got to cross tracks with this winter - can’t wait to share what those playful moments led to in the studio. 💛 . #getoutoftownvibe #whenimnotinthemtns (at British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeWPSn5rJEY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

. New Studio, Who Dis :: Color Study . #jessagilbertart . I recently moved back to Squamish, and it has felt less like starting over and more like returning to an old friend. I’m not the same as I was when I lived here last, nor is this town the same. And that’s okay. That’s life. Change is constant, it’s growth that is optional. . I’m so happy to sink some roots and continue to grow here. . Come swing by the new (to me) studio and say ‘hey, hi, how are ya?’ . #getoutoftownvibe #whenimnotinthemtns @burton @skidagram @evilbicycles (at Wind Studio - Print & Design) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVIoLHLl8tk/?utm_medium=tumblr

. “Hoping For An Inversion” :: 2021 . #jessagilbertart . Deep in the valley the air felt cold on the lungs, and every stray hair froze into silver strands. With every step we hoped that the sun illuminating the peaks in the distance would come with some warmth. Turns out, it’s hard to move at -30 degrees. 🥶 . This painting came from last years arctic outflow, and a few crispy tours out in Rogers Pass. Swipe through for some snaps from that day in the mountains. . Acrylic on Canvas :: 12” x 36” x 1.5” .

. Fall Hikes, Joffre Lakes :: Single Line ((Zoom In)) . #getoutoftownvibe . A crisp October breeze brought snow to our campsite, perched above the teal blue ripples of Joffre Lake. What a place to land your feet and lay your head. . I spent a couple nights camping with a group of 10th grade students from @crofton_house this week, and was so inspired by their optimism and camaraderie. For many of them, this was a first backcountry camp, and for all the first within snow. They were cold days, but the experience left everyone warm. It’s an absolute joy to share these places with others. 🙏 .

. Studio Grooves :: Work In Progress . #grannyonthecans . It’s forecasted to be plus or minus 100 degrees in Seattle the next few days. So, I’ll be here-I’m working on three different murals in Seattle in a new office building downtown. It’s a concrete skyscraper, and I’m trying to bring the outdoors in. . Stay cool, friends. . #jessagilbertart #whenimnotinthemtns #getoutoftownvibe @burton @skidagram (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQlofYoMnpF/?utm_medium=tumblr

. Studio Grooves . #jessagilbertart . Spoiler Alert: I have a solo art exhibition coming up in September at the @revelstoke_visualartscentre! . It feels like a forever balancing act between paint and play time, but I’m happy to say I’ve been finding a blend of the two within the studio these days. It has felt so good to roll up the sleeves and spend some quality time painting in the studio. I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on! . Mark your calendars ((repeat: SEPTEMBER)), we partyin’... as sophisticated art patrons of course. . #whenimnotinthemtns #getoutoftownvibe #barbonslope @burton @skidagram @evilbicycles @revelstoke (at Revelstoke, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/COslx7pMoFO/?igshid=1m0zhek2npm3n
