About
Welcome to the world of Jessie Fox, the Portland based artist behind Whatif Creations. Since founding Whatif Creations in 2013, Jessie has been captivating audiences with her hybrid animal artwork.
Each creation starts as a detailed ballpoint pen illustration that aims to capture both the odd similarities of each animal. Combined with unique and clever names, the results are designs that spark both curiosity and laughter.
Jessie's journey began during her time as a counselor for troubled teens where she used art as a way to build connections with her clients. The playful hybrid animal sketches became a way to invite others into a space where the rules of nature could be their own.
As the sketches piled up, she realized these strange, funny creatures had something special about them. They made people smile and gave a look into the absurd.
Jessie's products are featured in galleries and gift shops across the country. She has been a beloved fixture at the Portland Saturday Market for over a decade.
The Portland Saturday Market serves as her home base, offering the opportunity to connect directly with customers and see the smiles her hybrid animal artwork bring. With a deep love for animals and a commitment to fun, Jessie continues to create creatures that delight art lovers of all ages.
