Jessica has weird issues. I recall him posing as a woman for the longest time, and then he came out saying he lied to everyone, deleted all of his work or something. Then he came back a few months later. Either that, or he was hacked and it said Jessica is actually a man. All I recall was that there was some major wank that caused him/her to stop posting a while.
She's still alive and I do believe her old account was hacked. Also, having all their work posted on the net, even the art that we need to pay for, is not helping them. I know Jessica is taking a long break of posting her art on the net, like many other artists do those recent times.
