who even am i?

jesseguap is a Canadian artist and designer whose work explores street culture, faith, and personal resilience through bold graphic illustration. Born in Saskatoon in 1998 and raised in the small town of Wynyard, Saskatchewan, his early years were shaped by the church and a sense of stability. Later, his surroundings shifted toward crime, drugs, and addiction. Art became a consistent place of escape and focus, and those experiences continue to inform the tough yet watchful energy in his practice.

His illustrations feature stylized figures, strong silhouettes, high-contrast shapes, and clean graphic lines, often blending cartoon and street aesthetics with protective, faith-based motifs.

He has developed his practice primarily living in Saskatoon and Kelowna, while taking the work as far as New York and Los Angeles. Beginning in 2016, he became active in the SoundCloud and online rap community, creating cover art for tracks that have collectively surpassed multi-million views.
