Jack Roberts majored in fine art at the University of Nebraska at Omaha and worked as a graphic artist and art director of an advertising agency. Beginning in 1969 he devoted himself to fine art, full time, with a professional studio. Jack, his wife Clarise and five children moved to Colorado in 1973 where he opened a studio in downtown Denver. There, his elegant and sculptural painted metal wall constructions attracted many corporate collectors. From this desert base and through his extensive travel, he acquired a strong following in both the private and corporate sector. “I paint the feeling of a place,” Roberts explains. “Certain locations inspire me with their history, architecture, colour of light, botanical beauty and natural setting. Because I am moved by the totality of a place, my aim is not to render a pictorial reference, but to create a visual sensation.” Jack is represented in more than a dozen contemporary galleries nationwide and has been honoured with numerous solo shows. His work has been accepted in international juried exhibitions with several museum awards. Jack Roberts' paintings are displayed in private and corporate collections throughout the world, including the Irvine Corporation, Johns-Manville, AT&T, IBM, TICOR, BlueCross/Blue Shield, Marriott Hotels, Mofag Automobile AG and Surber Metalbay AG in Switzerland. - See more at: http://www.houshangart.com/housangs-gallery-artists-art.php?artistID=80#sthash.nBxMGJlO.dpuf
