Jes Ewers

I was lucky enough as a child to have the opportunity to travel through many of the great places in the US. I have little doubt this where my attachment to visual impact solidified itself as an integral part of my personal journey. I find it difficult to limit myself to one genre of art - I simply have more to say than one genre could offer. I do, however, find myself returning most often to portraits and figurative works, abstracts and landscapes.

I am a self taught artist - which is to say I was never afforded the chance to study under anyone's direction - I took it upon myself to read and learn as much as I could on my own and with limited resourses. It has been a long journey, at times frustrating, but in the end I believe I can say my style developed solely as a result of my own desires - and was never unduly influenced by any teacher.

My work, as a body, is hard to describe. I have seen life from many angles - from the relatively mundane life of a business professional to being a homeless man. From a musician to recreation read with an almost schoolboy fascination with theoretical physics. From one who endeavors to find the cool logic of life to the ardent philosopher. I've been a complete ass, and generous when no one knew it. I have been human. Perfectly flawed. It is my hope, and intention, only that my body of work reflect the broader man, not simply a one dimensional aspect easily summarized in a few paragraphs and a few pieces of art. I am many in my oneness, I guess you could say. And so is my work . . .
