Description
This is a beautiful print by Jess Dubois. It is signed and numbered. About the Artist......Jess Dubois A native of Five Points, Denver and a graduate of the Colorado Institute of Art, Mr. Dubois captures the emotions of diverse people in his art. Nearing 70 years of age, Mr. Dubois paints and draws every day. He is often described as a quiet, humble man. In a testimony to the cultural diversity that has long defined Colorado, he creates the artistry that reflects his Cherokee and African American roots. Working in mediums ranging from oils, to pastels, to bronze sculpture, to glass -- art is the most important thing in Jess DuBois’ life.Although Mr. DuBois’ subject matter ranges from landscapes to still life to portraits, it’s his ability to see the personal, individual qualities of people that make his portraitures so special. He finds subjects whose faces capture the spirit of the West today -- a spirit which is multiracial, multilingual and as diverse as the Indian, Spanish and pioneer cultures from which the region derives its heritage. Jess DuBois feels strongly about art as a positive influence in young people’s lives, and four decades of his art has inspired, enriched, mentored and motivated many young Denver artists.
