Hank Jessen - Artist of the Month


Hank Jessen is a prolific artist sometimes completing as many as 15 artworks in oil, acrylic, and watercolor.  His favorite subject matter is landscape, whether it is landscapes on his farm, his backyard, or the many travels that he and his wife, Joyce, enjoy throughout the year.  Jessen especially likes painting flowers and people.

Hank has been an active member of the CCAG for over twenty years and has exhibited his award-winning artwork at the CCAG Annual Spring Members' Show for many years.  He has also exhibited artwork at the Carnegie Art Center in Alliance, NE, the Holyoke, CO and Yuma, CO Art Shows, the Dalton Fall Festival, and the Cheyenne County Fair as well as the community Center in Sidney, NE and at the ANAC annual conferance, and many other places.

Jessen served as president of the CCAG in 2004-2005 and continues to serve on various art committees and continues to be an enthusiastic, participating member of the CCAG.  Hank also serves as the guild's Historian.
