About

J.P. has been sketching and painting since he was first able to hold a pencil. He took his passion for art and design to school and became a registered architect, designing everything from homes to laboratory spaces. He has taught design workshops at various universities and institutions both in the US and internationally.

Having lived in the DC metropolitan area most of his life, he exhibited and sold his work at numerous spaces there, including the NIH Clinical Center Art Gallery in Rockville, Maryland. He has also been juried and exhibited by a group of national and international artists at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia.

Although he has worked with oil, acrylic and other media, he is fascinated by the freedom and looseness that watercolor offers as a medium. He is intrigued by the "let's see what happens" element when he works with watercolor.
