Artist Bio:
Jesse Crock is a Colorado-based artist with a love of cycling, fly fishing, and the outdoors. The rich color and sharp contrast of his acrylic paintings attempt to capture the vibrant Colorado landscape of the places he travels. Jesse is an art teacher who finds that he often connects his work with the playfulness of his students and is inspired by the energy they bring to the classroom. As an outdoor enthusiast, he brings the viewer’s eye to places that are not often painted.

He was awarded first place in painting at the Golden Fine Arts in 2023 and has created several large outdoor murals for the Mountain Toad Brewery, Golden Moon Distillery, Vital Outdoors, and the Trailhead Taphouse. He has worked with the Colorado Mountain Club on various projects; including two adult coloring books and a mural for their office. You can view more of his work at the Mountain Toad Brewery. In Buena Vista, he created numerous paintings for beer labels for the Eddyline Brewery. He exhibits his work at their restaurant and at their tap room where you can see his murals.
