NEXT ART EXHIBIT

FEATURED CHAC ARTIST 

 Jay Jaramillo 

Hello World! My name is Jay Michael Jaramillo, I have been an artist all my life; learning from my father, Jerry Jaramillo who is a renowned artist, sculptor & jeweler. I was always encouraged to follow my passion in life and I can proudly say I have been living the dream as an artist as long as I can remember.  I explored numerous styles of painting to create my own unique style which includes: traditional portrait painting, cubism, surrealism and street art to reflect my contemporaries. I receive most of my inspiration from the beauty of life in all shapes and forms while also seeking to display the cosmic energies on Earth and in the cosmos.
