"DISSOCIATIVE IMPRESSIONISM"
Jim is a retired technologist who, after years of working for 'the man', decided to pursue his true love, art. For the past twenty years, he has studied art, watched instructional videos of the masters, entered juried art shows and perfected his style.
Today, Jim has his studio in his home in Missouri. Finding time to paint can be a challenge, but he has produced works in oil and acrylics that have been juried into several art shows in his region as well as several one-man shows.
He has named his style "Dissociative Impressionism" because of the technique he uses to keep his strokes fluid and exciting. A lover of color, his style also leans towards the brighter hues within the primary colors. "I want the painting to wow the viewer with its intensity of stroke and color", says Jim. Jim has managed to keep a pet portrait business going on the side as he creates other works for art shows. "I love animals and had many pets throughout my life. The impact they had on my life was everlasting. I do this to honor those loved ones that others have in their lives," he says.
