Episode 02: Jewel Sales
Jewel Sales is a queer Filipinx artist, feminist, personality, and activist. Originally from New York, grew up in Old Bridge, NJ, and now residing in Los Angeles.
Jewel’s work embodies body positivity, feminism, and queer representation. As a queer artist, she felt a sense of urgency to create safe spaces and has been inspired by making people feel a sense of connectedness.
Jewel noticed the LGBTQ+ community didn’t have enough nightlife options other than drinking and clubbing. That's when “Paint and Sip with Jewel” was born. She started to host her own BIPOC + queer paint workshops, as an alternative safe space, colliding art and community.
