Jessica Rice was born in Belgium and her first oils were painted in Central Africa, where as a young girl she was inspired by the angularity perceived in African art. In 1959 she moved to San Fancisco and continued painting oils after her graduation from San Francisco Academy of Art in 1964. The diverse style of early 20th century avant-garde movement, the primitive and lush primary colors reminiscent of her childhood with strong distinctive brush strokes she creates imaginative memories steeped in the traditions of three continents.
