"Have Brushes -- Will Meet or Exceed Your Expectations"
Much of Jack's inspiration comes from a motivational Twin Flame called "Yohiel." This guardian angel has been directing, guiding and inspiring Jack's artwork ever since Jack was a child -- and again, more recently, since 1992. Presently, Jack lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he works as a journeyman painter and professional muralist/faux-finisher. In 2007, he single-handedly refurbished and repainted the 35-foot high sky ceilings in the Le Village Buffet restaurant at the Paris Hotel-Casino and worked on the crew that painted and maintained the faux-wood and faux-marble on the trim, walls, and columns throughout the hotel, casino and boulevard shops. Since the turn of 2008, he has been worling as foreman, punch crew painter, and journeyman faux painter, adding the finishing touches to the Concierge Suites and Lounge at the Venetian Palazzo Hotel-Casino Resort and to the North Tower rooms and suites at the Mirage Hotel-Casino. Jack has also been actively involved for over 3 years in the ongoing development of the Las Vegas "Arts District." He has exbited his artwork on "First Fridays" at Neon Venus Art Theatre and in group shows conducted by wineNart at Artistic Ironworks. His life's mission focuses on the design and eventual implementation of a first-of-its kind, self-sustainable, eco-architectural model that has the potential to provide a limitless source of food, energy, and livelihood for millions of on-site residents. In Las Vegas, he has been working on the adaptation of this concept for use in the hospitality industry. He also works after hours, creating various-sized fine art canvases and wood panel boards. All this gives expression in oils, acrylics and architectural design to his global mindset, futuristic ideals, San Francisco upbringing and recent sojourn to Bali, Indonesia, where he worked for 8 years as an artist, muralist and faux-finisher for clients such as Cafe Lotus, Rioshi Japanese Restuarant the Radisson Bali Hotel. A graduate in fine arts and design from Pepperdine University, Jack has achieved national and international acclaim for his extraordinary use of color, light, and movement. Over the past 20 years, he has won prestigious awards, has garnered "Best in Show" in several internationally juried competitions, and has earned professional acclaim from the likes of Disney, Playboy, Warner Brothers and Save the Children International.
To hear him tell of his plans or recount some of his experiences, they sound almost grandiose -- until you've viewed his artwork. Best described, his paintings are a cutting-edge combination of realism, surrealism and visionary art -- a blend of Michelangelo, Salvadore Dali and Leonardo daVinci -- images that depict other world realms as well as "art-fantastique" concepts. His artwork adorns the homes of such recognizable celebrities as actor Dustin Hoffman and Archbishop D. Tutu of South Africa as well as numerous other diplomats and dignitaries worldwide. Clients, decorators, contractors and collectors call him a "master" at his trade and credit his images, murals, faux-finishes and architectual concepts as having healing properties.
