| Biography | |
J.C. Seo was born on December 17th, 1940. Dynamic yet contemplative, exacting yet inexhaustibly versatile, J.C. Seo is a complex artist with a rare gift and a spectacular eye. Respected internationally for his mastery of romantic realism, his works are included in fine art galleries throughout the United States and Canada, as well as in the National Museum in his native South Korea. His works have been commissioned by General Ray Davis for a depiction of General Douglas MacArthur leading troops during the Korean War. The Holy Innocents High School in Atlanta, Georgia also commissioned Mr. Seo to paint a piece depicting the Alaskan Brown Bear that represents the schools authority and foundation. General Ray Davis wrote Mr. Seos great talent and artistic vision are vividly portrayed in his paintings.
Influenced by 19th century masters like Anders Zorn and John Singer Sargent, he prefers to work on a warm palette, balancing passages of rich color with delicate grays. Through subtle color harmonies and lighting, J.C. Seo seeks to create a palpable sense of mood in each painting. His methods of application are steeped in tradition but at the same time quite contemporary. His paintings include rural landscapes of the countryside, harbors, genre of the Mediterranean, and wildlife studies.
Today, Mr. Seos network of galleries, dealers, and publishing interests continue to grow worldwide. The evolution of the artists success has been born of hard work, discipline, and an unending passion to paint.
The reward for his past efforts and resulting success have allowed J.C. Seo to focus his energy solely on creating new works of art.
J.C. Seo is a member of the Korea Fine Art Association, New Fine Art Association, American Art Society, Chung Jo Art Group, International Artist League, Nauri Art Group, Contemporary Korean Artists Group of New Jersey, and Korean American Contemporary Artist, New York. |
