About the Artist — JMC
JMC is a left-handed, neo-expressionist artist known for urgent pastel and charcoal drawings that feel both ancestral and futuristic. Working in a single, uninterrupted session, he creates trance-like transmissions—bold contours, masked faces, cosmic eyes, and figures dissolving into color and frequency. His newest body of work is inspired by the raw spiritual energy of Sedona’s red-rock landscape.
Raised in the American South and based in Florida, JMC blends a lifetime of cultural intersections with a deeply spiritual practice. Although raised right-handed, he draws exclusively with his left—a choice that opens a more intuitive channel and gives his lines their unmistakable immediacy. Viewers often describe his work as emotional, energetic, and strangely familiar, as if tapping into something ancient.
After years spent creating art, designing clothing, working as a craftsman, and homeschooling two stepchildren, JMC returned to full-time studio practice with renewed clarity and purpose. His focus now is expansion—developing major series, building collector relationships, and moving into top art markets including Sedona, Santa Fe, Los Angeles, Bogotá, and Jerusalem.
While his independent studio work explores the visionary and the symbolic, JMC also creates intimate commissions that honor personal stories—memorial portraits, spiritual moments, and scenes of connection and transformation.
At its core, his art is about presence: slowing down, listening, and letting each mark reveal itself. Every piece is a conversation between spirit, landscape, and line.
JMC is currently accepting collectors, commissions, and gallery interest.
