Introducing the oil on canvas work of figurative realist painter JAY JOHANSEN

Mujer Matadora 54 by 36 inches Heavenly 60 by 35 inches

“After painting a variety of interesting subjects, I approached a homeless person on the streets of San Francisco and was deeply affected. Encountering this man ignited thoughts and feelings about my work that had previously eluded me. I was moved. Genuinely inspired. It was at that moment I knew I would paint people and pursue figurative realism.” ~ Jay Johansen
