About The Distant Drum

Jessica Marie Gross a visual artist, designer, and illustrator living and working in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She got a BFA from the University of New Mexico in 2009. After graduation, she moved to California to enjoy the beautiful weather and ocean, but felt compelled to return to the desert landscape, vast horizons, and sunny skies of New Mexico. Whether a hand-pulled print, a pin, or a sticker, she puts care and thought into the pieces she designs and makes for her shop. She only sells things she would love to have in her own house, add to her own wardrobe, or send as a gift to a good friend.Read their story
