Jordan Sands

From Upstate NY.Jordan has enjoyed an unusually broad and diversified background in the creative arts. Her artistic activities began in childhood, as a dancer, actress and singer. She has performed on stage and screen, and sung in concerts, clubs and on TV in the states as well as abroad. Her repertoire ranges from Puccini to jazz.Jordan has had numerous art shows here and abroad and her works are in many collections around the world.Jordan says, "I see life as a metamorphosis, an infinity, a cyclical flow of energy, universal energy with no beginning and no end. I paint that energy. When I paint a flower, I am that flower. Sometimes when I paint, I realize that I am unaware of what I am painting ------ Only that I am painting."

Jordan studied art at New York's famous Art Student League. She studied anatomical drawing with the famous artist Gustav Rehberger, through whom, "I learned to see as well as sense the life and motion in the human form. Gary Faigan gave me the structure and the wonderful Michael Burban the joy and sense of accomplishment. Through Richard Goetz I learned to see form, colors and composition. Hilary Holmes gave me a knowledge of the palette and the discipline necessary to paint realism, while Nelson Shanks taught me the difference between sketching and painting a portrait. Thomas Fogarty and Oldrich Teply taught me to see and express freely what I saw and gave me the faith in myself not to doubt my abilities. The famous abstract artist, Richard Pousette-Dart gave me an understanding of abstract thought and emotion. This understanding gave me the freedom to express my feelings in abstract form on canvas."Selected GalleriesGenesis Gallery - 57th St. NYCGrand Central Gallery - 57th St NYCNina's Choice Gallery - 57th St. NYCDyansen Gallery - Soho NYCLombardi Gallery - Soho NYCJadite Gallery - NYCZeigler Gallery - Zurich Switz.Lafayette Gallery - Dallas TXNational Art Sources & Services - NYCDarell Ramon Garanza Gallery - Dallas TXGuild Ha...
