In Flight ~ Red-Tailed Hawk

Here’s the first capture of the painting titled, “In Fight ~ Red-Tailed Hawk,” by the duo of Cincinnati-based fine artists Jeff Johns and Colin Daugherty, who coined the name JJCD Collaborations™ since their first masterpiece of the Cincinnati skyline years ago. “We’re really looking to capture the essence of this soaring hawk on a canvas that’s nearly as big as me,” says Daugherty.

Stay tuned and enjoy the progress.

Jeff Johns Unveils “Indigenous,” Featuring Kauai’s Native Hibiscus

Capturing the Beauty of Kauai

Jeff Johns is an acclaimed neo-impressionist painter based in Northern Kentucky. His paintings featuring the natural beauty of his home state have appeared in galleries throughout Ohio and Kentucky.

Upon his first visit to Kauai, in late 2012, he immediately fell under the spell of the island’s distinctive flora, especially the native hibiscus. So captivated was he by the flower, he snapped some 15 hundred—yes, hundred—digital photos of the bold blooms during his stay. Yet when he returned home, he discovered that not even the camera’s mega-pixel lens could capture the flower’s beauty.

With the hibiscus still emblazoned in his mind’s eye, he turned to his paints and canvas to render its vivid essence. The result is a limited-edition series of paintings that convey the flower’s elegant beauty in rich hues and thickly applied brush strokes.

 “Nothing can compare to actually being on the island,” says Johns. “But I wanted everyone to have the opportunity to bring a little bit of paradise home with them.”
