MISSION

To create handcrafted mosaics and mixed-media art that honors the beauty of imperfection and invites others into the creative process.

Who is Jerm Day-Storms?

🎯 Jerm Day-Storms is the artist and founder behind Day-Storms Studio, creating handcrafted mosaics, photography, monoprints, and mixed-media work rooted in texture, contrast, and transformation. His creative journey grew out of a midlife pivot—from a career in science and writing to a deeper focus on making art after becoming a father later in life.

Based in Florida, Jerm draws daily inspiration from light, storms, broken pieces, and the beautiful chaos of raising three boys. His work reflects a belief that creativity doesn’t require perfection—only curiosity, patience, and the courage to begin again.

Above all else, he’s most proud to be a dad—and this studio is built on that same spirit of wonder, growth, and hands-on making.
