Born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Jared demonstrated a passion for drawing and art from an early age. In high school he wanted to become a classical hand-drawn animator. However, when computer animation slowly took over the industry, Jared redirected his career goals into something more traditional. Today, Jared is an elementary school teacher. His proclivity and appreciation for the elemental aspects of human life and existence are also demonstrated in his visual language as an artist. Jared’s paintings use colour and shape to discuss form and formlessness. In particular, his current body of work explores the Soul ingredients of the universe. His works are readily available at The Lloyd Gallery in Penticton, BC. Jared is proud to announce his first Solo Exhibition which will take place at Woodlands Gallery in Winnipeg, MB. The exhibition runs from Sept 7 - Sept 21.
