J.D. is also an accomplished musician and writer, he writes historical fiction, short stories and “Post-Gonzo Crime Pulp” novels including “The Clabber Grrrl’s Retreat” and “EYE SKIN”.J.D. is a master of Venetian plaster Trompe-l'œil painting techniques and integrates this with primitive styles and found objects in his mixed media paintings, assemblage and functional artwork.His catalog of artworks includes paintings on both found-objects and traditional stretched canvas, assemblage pieces which integrate recycled and up-cycled elements with metal work andtraditional painting. He also creates a series offunctionalstoragetrunkswhich combineTrompe-l'œilpainting of inlay and Venetian plaster with metal tooling and other embellishment.While J.D. has not had formal training and is self-taught as a visual artist, he regards art as “THE Temple,” and finds himself “constantly fascinated by the classic Arts”. However, he states that he does not “feel compulsion to join in the confines of perfect symmetry or orthodoxy,” noting that “it is not unusual for Artists to wander the earth filling their pockets and workshop with discarded objects, rusted auto parts or lids off soup cans. To the uninspired eye these broken things need to be thrown away, to an Artist they merely need to be included in a frozen moment of transmutation.” J.D. is inspired to create art because “tin can sing. Rust can breathe. “J.D.'s work communicates to the unique human experience informed by our contemporary surroundings, but appropriates and re-imagines themes from Classical Western art styles and content.The beachKraft Gallery is excited to show a selection of paintings, assemblage and functional works throughout the month of March.See J.D.
