Jeremy resides in Phoenix, AZ. He has been an arts educator for the past 26 years and has taught all ages and many different subjects in the arts. Along with teaching high school students, he currently teaches printmaking to adults at Xico, Inc. Arte y Cultura. Jeremy is a working artist and enjoys creating pieces with bright, bold colors and some of his subjects include animals, creatures, and objects of pop culture from the 1980s and 1990s. His work primarily consists of mono screen-prints, paintings, and whimsical faux taxidermy creatures called Yocumonsters. When he is not working in his studio, he is often in the kitchen writing recipes for new ice cream flavors that he calls Yocum’s Yummies. His pieces can be seen around the valley in restaurants and galleries, and he regularly participates in First Friday in downtown Phoenix.
