Here’s where it all started. The first painting that Jeff Johns and Colin Daugherty teamed up on. This piece was done in late 2011 and recently sold this year. A true masterpiece this was, not only for the end result but for starting an ultra-unique creative collaboration united on canvas.

Proud to announce that the painting titled In-Flight, Red-tailed Hawk in on display at Seed Strategy. Also, the painting is also now featured on the company’s website. This acrylic on canvas painting was created by myself, Jeff Johns and Colin Daugherty. JJCD Collaborations.
Here’s the final 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’ve really looked 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.

It’s always rewarding to sell a painting, but what motivates me most is the excitement it brings to the new owner.

Here’s a transcript from The Steersmen Site.
This post is about the neo-impressionist painter Jeff Johns, who was kind enough to let us use his acrylic painting of the Roebling suspension bridge for the album art of our album. You can find much of his work here.
“An artist is paid not for his labor but for his vision.”
— James Whistler
This past winter I spent a lot of time doing things related to our album:
• Checking on final mixes
• Finding a mastering engineer
• Pulling out my hair because we couldn’t find art that matched our music
Suddenly, by the grace/pure-randomness of the internet, the latter problem was solved.
I came across an artist named Jeff Johns on twitter. After following him I was immediately intrigued by the color-schemes that he used on his acrylic paintings. A lot of vibrant colors against a black background, which is exactly the type of painting we tried (I emphasize the word “tried”) to simulate on our ep cover here:
Many of his paintings matched up with my fondness for urban areas, light reflections, and bridges. It was perfect. I shot him a message asking to use one of his paintings and he couldn’t have been a nicer artist to work with.
Here’s the final design.
Here’s a painting from back in 2011. I really like this painting, but have moved on from painting nudes so I’d love to get rid of it.
