ABOUT GOOD GOOSE GRAPHICS
​
Good Goose Graphics is me, Jess Michetti, an architect-turned-mom who started off working nights and naptimes. Good Goose Graphics started as an outlet for my bird drawings on Etsy and grew into a small graphic design shop where I work on a little bit of everything. My architectural background and my love for the natural world inform a lot of my work.
​
Good Goose Graphics was born from my bird drawings, and creating artwork is still an important part of what I do. I use a variety of media to create drawings of the birds I encounter in the streets and parks of Northern Virginia. Some drawings are extremely detailed studies of a particular species, while others are more playful experiments with color and style. You can find me and my birds at art shows around the Washington, D.C. area.
​
I love birds and truly cherish the natural world. I’m a member of both the Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. I work on a daily basis with my local Audubon chapter with their website and communications, and have had the opportunity to work with many conservation organizations around Northern Virginia.
​
My shop is named after my dog, Bella “Goose” Michetti. Rather than “good dog,” she’s always been “good goose” for reasons that I can’t really remember or explain. I tried to get some reasonable photos of us for this page, but instead decided to celebrate that fact that I couldn't really get her to cooperate.
