Hello. My name is JD Hunt and I am an award winning artist, illustrator, and graphic designer.
My paintings and illustrations tend to be weird, abstract and imperfect. Quite often I don't paint an image as much as I discover one from the relationship I build with a painting. I see images in random things and my painting method comes from building up layers to find those images within the marks.
Artist Statement
Painting is a symbiotic relationship. I don’t create things as much as I uncover them. The images I produce are parts of me, hidden, in waiting, and when I find them I also find a part myself, and so the image, and I, become more alive. I share these images because it’s the most comfortable way for me to share myself.
