Traditional Art Hunter Jay
“Enchantment”
Acrylic on Canvas
20″ x 30″, $1,200
My goal is to reveal the wonder of the hidden world around us. I like to focus on the geometry of the composition; the way the elements are arranged on the canvas. Sometimes I find that this becomes more important than the actual subject matter. My work embraces an admiration of simplicity, and evokes a contemplative and peaceful place. I’m intrigued by “Mystery” and strive to capture this in anything I paint. My subject matter varies, but the aim is to invite the viewer to interpret a hidden element, which can be literal or thematic.

“Winter Arch Waterfall”
Archival Ink & Paper
24″ x 16″ (Signed Limited Edition Print Run of 7), $500
Passionate about photography & the visual arts since 2005, always looking for the next flash of inspiration. Starting with a compulsion to change directions after obtaining a bachelor’s degree in economics, and a love for travel across the world, I am constantly driven to explore new places & ideas with a childlike sense of wonder.
In university I majored in economics and obtained my bachelor’s degree, then felt compelled to change directions by studying graphic design. From there I fell in love with photography and 11 years down the line it remains my number one passion. Faced with many detours and road bumps, I would never take a moment back for the hard lessons learned and a better sense of clarity today. As a visual artist I much prefer telling stories through images, and hope you like what you see.
