JERMAINE NEAL ART

       About The Artist 

Painting for me is more than just Art, it’s a way of seeing, feeling, and expressing my passion. I develop my paintings from various visual encounters. When I place my brush to a canvas, I pull out the deep rooted memories that I have accumulated over the years and create an emotional pictorial gravity. When I create my works of art, it’s like an outer body experience. 

In the intricate details of my paintings, you will find the pain and passion that I see through my eyes. You will also find hidden visual messages that will make you expand your mind to different intellectual levels. In my paintings you will find various depictions of eyes, arrows, and crosses. Each depiction is a symbolic symbol’s that represent past and present pivotal points in my life. When an individual looks at my paintings I want them to be captivated from the enjoyment of my art.  The labor of art for me is a supernatural depiction of my feelings and visions which give me pure pleasure. 

In my art I seek to capture the true essence of the piece. Every piece of art I put on canvas, or medium that I choose is an expression of my vision threw some sort of political, fashion, or socioeconomic message with in it. While I paint, I work out my ideas to the most extreme without attempting to control the the destiny of each painting, it's almost like having a certain controlled chaos. I control the process to a certain point, but then the painting itself takes over. When I feel that every element of the painting connects, I end the process. The lines themselves are the only visual evidence of the energy of the process. I want my paintings to stir up different emotions with in people. I want people to understand the pain and passion that's within me. The pain that I have invested yields realm of fulfillment. I hope my paintings provide pleasure and pain, for your eyes are the windows to your soul.
