Jerry Puryear

My studies at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C. and later at Saint Joseph’s University (Bachelor of Arts in Fine Arts) have served as my foundation in art education. Most of my work is acrylic on canvas. However, I use whatever medium that I can find from plexiglas, wood or any upcycled material, because everything has value and can be made into something beautiful.
