关于Jcmlfineart
Website: www.jcmlfineart.comI am a student at Southwest Minnesota State University. I am currently working on my bachelor's in Fine Arts. I am a junior and take most of my classes online. When this is not possible, I live in Minnesota for that semester.
I am the first international art student to take a figure drawing at SMSU in January 2021. I convinced the art department to take me on, and it was a stunning success for a first semester conducted entirely via video chat.
Using programs like this one is great for my daily use. I try to draw for at least 3 hours using this website every day. I often post my gestures on my social media sites. Please feel free to have a look and read it.
In the fall semester of 2020, on December 12th, I won the Mary and Jack Hickerson Endowed Scholarship. This scholarship is among the most prestigious awarded at Southwest Minnesota State University.
I have won a few juried shows in New York. My work has been shown in The Art House NYC's show Grow in 2017 and the Van Der Plas Gallery NYC in 2018. My paintings have been shown locally in Southwest Minnesota. They have occasionally been displayed on the front pages of the Marshall Independent and Tyler Tribute newspapers in Minnesota throughout my high school and current college years. My most recent show was at the Cassio Metro Estate in Watford, UK. It remained until the end of September 2021 and focused on artist studies for eventual larger works in more abstract forms.
I finished working on a few commissions for Second Harvest in January of 2022; Second Harvest is a food bank that works tirelessly to help children and families get the food they need to survive, thrive, and become their best selves in the Minnesota community. In October, both works, "Hunger is the Pits" and "Second Samie" sold in their silent auction with great success.
I finished two privately commissioned children's portraits in April of 2023. If you are looking to commission an artist, I am happy to create individual custom works that reflect your memories and needs. My work consistss of mainly of figure and landscape images, but I also do portraits on request.
In 2025, I finished a few sculpted fibre art projects that were used in a private wedding in September of that year.
In early February 2023, I passed the junior review phase of my studies. Now it's time to start putting my drafts for my graduation show together and getting it ready for peer and public review. I have been slowly working on this project over the last couple of years. If I take the right classes, I should graduate in 2027. So that would mean that May of that year will be my big gallery show. I am very excited and nervous to finally get to this finish line and start running my little art business full-time.
Speaking of collaborations, I like collaborations. Working with other creatives is always a fab challenge worth taking on. Got an idea? Cool. Let's make some art together.
I am also always on the lookout for models interested in dynamic modelling. If you are a model and would like to work with me, please reach out!
