Piece description from the artist
This rock outcropping can be found in one of Colorado's lesser tread spaces. It's a long hike to get there but the geology is so interesting. They take on the sense of an ancient monolith rising from the earth. High above in the sky is a rock that is emerging from a watery space. It shifts the perspective in a sudden and eye-catching way. This work is meant to evoke a spiritual and psychological space within all of us.
J. M. Jensen is a native Colorado gallery artist, illustrator and instructor.
He received a Bachelor’s in illustration at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design and a Master’s in Painting at Colorado State University.
J. M. Jensen’s currently gallery work combines a variety of styles in a surreal way. His current work is exploring a new technique of aggressive scratching and scraping and building layers in combination with highly detailed, realistic elements. The work is meant to be an exploration of the different natures of matter and spirit as well as the contrasts that can be found throughout nature such as in the idea of Yin and Yang, masculine and feminine, grace and nature. J.M. Jensen is inspired by all things that remind him of the strangeness, mystery and beauty of the world.
He shows regularly in Colorado and has exhibited throughout the west. He is currently an Assistant Professor of Foundations and Fine Art at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design.
