Jim Isermann (born 1955, Kenosha, Wisconsin) is an American artist.

Since the 90s Isermann's work has frequently been discussed as addressing issues of style and decoration at the intersection between art and applied design.
Christopher Knihght described "The domestic realm animates Isermann's art. He had spent the prior half-dozen years teaching himself a number of homespun craft techniques, gleaned from how-to handbooks. Stained glass panels, wall hangings of pieced fabric, woven textiles and hand-braided rugs are techniques that embrace a homey, lived-in, DIY aesthetic for objects, crossing art and design, functional and not."
In a revue of Isermann's 1994 retrospective of hand made objects including, a clock, a lamp, stained glass, shag rugs, and more Lisa Anne Auerbach writes, "Though these pieces border on craft, their high quality, size, and careful fabrication gives them an industrial air. Untitled, 1989, is an eight-foot-square wall-piece, half painting and half rug-hooking. The acrylic yarn matches the enamel paint, and the design flows almost seamlessly among the different surfaces..."
Arbauch goes on to write of Isermann's Quilts from 1994, "A one hundred year old, lifetime quilter could not have made seams more perfect, and if stitches were brush strokes, Dutch still lifes wouldn't even come close to the precision of these works. "
By the new century Iserman began increasingly incorporating commercial fabrication into the production of his work.
Beginning with vinyl decals of repeating patterns that were placed on the walls like wallpaper.
In 1997, with David Blomster, Isermann purchased a prefabricated steel and glass houses in Palm Springs that had been designed by Donald Wexler, and after refurbishing the building, eventually moved from Los Angeles to the property full time in 2000.
