As part of the Extended School Partnership program student showcase, Jocelyn and her artist friends collaborated on a concept art book titled Clownthology, which showcases concept art, character biographies, extra content, and props from their Dungeons & Dragons characters. They were inspired by the recent animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse (2018) and other media to create the concept art book as a response to the mythology theme Chula Vista art students chose for the partnership with the MCASD.
