Surrealism, Portraits, and Landscapes in Oils
Jack Henry is an Asheville, NC-based artist focused on blending visionary styles such as fantastical realism, surrealism, impressionism & abstraction into evocative narratives that speak both to the modern experience of human struggle and to the beauty of existence on Earth and the glimmers of hope within. While mostly working in oil paints since 2018, Jack enjoys working in a variety of paint media including acrylics for live-painting and aerosol for muraling. Without formal instruction, Jack found his way to painting by falling in love with the art and artists of the modern live-painting & Visionary Art movement, where he was able to learn and grow with so many talented artists willing to share their knowledge. Now almost a decade into his journey as an artist, Jack is thrilled to be working with several others to co-curate the Art Garden AVL Gallery in Asheville, NC’s “River Arts District,” which is the home to Jack Henry’s art studio.
