As time has gone by, we have really begun to gain a greater understanding of what your paintings bring and what they are. The essence of your work seems to actually be within the painting itself. Somehow, you seem to have been able to convey the very Source of creative power and energy directly onto your canvas. It is not a description of that Source, it IS the very Source! I believe that is why your art has such an incredible ability to transform, to emanate and to radiate.

New Portrait Concept

 

 

 

 

 Portrait by Jonas Gerard

 

Jonas' Previous Portrait Style

These Portraits were painted from a series of photos taken by the artist as a means to really get to know his subjects as well as to capture spontaneity and natural expressions.

Jonas' aim in portraits was to convey the true essence of each person as expressed through the eyes.
