Collection: Jack Swinney

I have spent most of my life in North Carolina, having grown up in Charlotte. The diverse geography and scenery of my state has always inspired me. My doodling of those sights led me study fine art.

So, I started serious instruction with Elizabeth Ross, the Mims Studio, the Egeli’s school in Annapolis, and with Steve Early at Nelson Shanks' Studio Incamminati in Philadelphia. Although my skill level improved, what I really learned is how to see better, and to enjoy some sights I might have missed.

My oil paintings capture sights and scenes unique to the Carolinas. Images from my art are transferred to fabric made into silk scarfs.
