Erica Jespersen Reception

(MINOT, ND) The Taube Museum of Art will be exhibiting watercolor paintings by North Dakota artist Erica Jespersen in the Langer Gallery from Jan. 5 – Feb. 11, 2022.
Erica Jespersen is a wife, mom, and studio artist, based out of Bowbells, ND. She has featured several of her pieces in the Minot State University Student Juried Show, and won best of show in 2015. She has participated in area small works shows, and previously exhibited at the James Memorial Art Center in Williston, ND. Although she enjoys creating with a variety of mediums, she primarily uses watercolor.

“The things we use and surround ourselves with everyday have certain styles that almost give them a personality. My favorite things with character are furniture. I find that all of the furniture I surround myself with in my house has wonderful character that gives it a personality. In my watercolor paintings I try to capture that personality the best I can. I want the viewer to be able to picture the type of person I see behind the furniture pieces. To personify the furniture further I aimed for a portrait look and less like a still life style painting.”
-Erica Jespersen

There will be a reception for Jespersen’s artwork on January 20th from 5:00-7:00 pm at the Taube Museum of Art.

This exhibit is made possible with support from the North Dakota Council on the Arts.
