Jemar Michael
Jemar Michael is an abstract artist who originates from Minneapolis,MN. Graduating from Saint Paul Conservatory in 2009, he first came to Los Angeles for acting in which Jemar had some successes in Hollywood. With acting slowing down, Jemar now focuses the majority of his time creating art.
His process is mostly focused on intuition and imperfection. Growing up with perfectionism tendencies, the imperfections and ‘no rules mindset’ allows Jemar to break away from those old tendencies and express himself freely in a way that transcends his day to day life into something more pleasurable. “Art is an ode to my younger self who never got to make mistakes with ease.”
Jemar creates works that are color focused while keeping an element of organized chaos. Each piece is seen as a journal entry into his subconscious.
