Hello There!
My name is Jasmine Bailey!
I am a collection of creativity who loves to bring the forests of her imagination to life. Inspired by nature, films, and the abilities of different mediums, I strive to make genuine connections with those who interact with me and my creations. I currently live in Connecticut and I studied Audio and Music Production at Western Connecticut State University.
I enjoy creating traditional art using alcohol markers, gouache, ink and colored pencil. Sometimes all at the same time!
I create digital illustrations using Procreate on an Ipad and the Affinity Serif products on a computer.
Using a modest collection of hardware and software synthesizers, I create the soundtracks to my creations.
It's important to me to retain my sense of freedom to create and a love for learning and thirst for knowledge. It's why I call myself Jazzy Creates instead of Jazzy Draws or Jazzy Composes. I am not one thing. I am a collection of creativity.
