Yesenia Jones, Behind the Tufting Gun

I’m a fiber artist, a stay-at-home mom to two toddlers, and married to WetPaintLarry, an acrylic artist. My love for fiber began at the age of six, when my grandmother taught me how to crochet. Ever since, creating with yarn has been a part of who I am.My work is deeply inspired by my upbringing between National City, CA and Tijuana, BC. A blend of vibrant colors, textures, and cultures that shaped my artistic vision. Each piece I create reflects the warmth, energy, and nostalgia of the environments that raised me.
