I’m Tess Bloomer, a death doula and visual artist. My work is the natural extension of how I move through the world; how I listen, how I love, how I make meaning.

I’ve always felt pulled to spaces most avoid: thresholds, endings, the places where things fall apart and reveal something new. Part of my mission is to reestablish the beauty and sanctity of endings.

My soul is magnetized where grief and love intersect. I’ve spent years practicing how to stay with what we’re culturally conditioned to run from.

I believe in the profound value of loving presence; I’m here to witness and to make space for whatever is ready to unfold.

I work with the living, the dying, the in-between, and the parts of ourselves we’ve exiled because they were “too much” or “not enough.”

Art is my way of expressing/capturing the fleeting. The Legacy commissions are my unique doula offering. These commissions are about connection, honoring life, and creating a visual legacy for loved ones and future generations to cherish. As a death doula, I’ve trained with The Anam Cara Academy, DDLA, and INELDA.

Thank you for being here.

I look forward to connecting with you.

Tess Bloomer
