About the Artist

Fieldmark Print Co. grew out of Jessie Donovan’s lifelong fascination with the natural world and her desire to reconnect people to the ecology of the place they call home. While working as a software engineer, time outdoors was the only way she could rest and reset her mind. That habit of slowing down and paying attention to the world around her became the foundation of Fieldmark.

Beyond Fieldmark, Jessie maintains a broader art practice that includes conceptual projects exploring how systems of knowledge such as scientific classification and anthropology shape (and distort) our understanding of the natural world.

Outside the studio, Jessie co-runs ShowMe Hikes, a community hiking program that brings people together to explore Missouri’s public lands and learn about local ecosystems. She also operates Frame STL, a custom framing studio focused on craftsmanship and education, where she teaches others how to frame their own artwork.
