Artists Statement

Art is a voluntary effort to satisfy an involuntary urge.

Whether two-dimensional, three-dimensional
or ethereal the desired intent
of the artistic expression is to disconnect the observer
from the reality arrived with . . .

to capture
to entertain
to supercede one’s conscious presence
with new information in total departure from one’s accustomed rhythms

to provide an escape from the overwhelming, totally encompassing now
into a free-falling state of uninhibited, limitless experience where artistic expression
induces calculated, spontaneous excursions beyond memorable experience without the burden of consequence

BIO:

​
Born November 15, 1946 in Boonville, Missouri, I received a B.S. in Commercial Art from Missouri State University in 1968. Following four years in the US Navy, I worked briefly as a commercial artist for a small appliance manufacturing company. During that period, I produced the art for the first small appliance selected for the cover of the Neiman Marcus Christmas catalog.

In 1974 I began freelancing as a residential designer. When I married in 1975, I designed and built our first home and then resumed painting in earnest. I worked for architectural offices from 1978 through 1990, moonlighting on the side. I opened my own design office, J.E. Cundiff, Designer in 1990 to produce some of the area’s finest homes. My art was selling through galleries.

I continued working in my design business until family health issues forced it to close. 

"I started painting in high school, painted my first Oil painting a week before entering college  and have it on display to this day.  I have been painting and designing fine homes for 50 years.  I see the two passions . . . "​

​My art has shown at Art Santa Fe 2023, The Daum Museum of Contemporary Art 2023, ArtExpo Dallas 2023,
Amsterdam Whitney Gallery, Chelsey NYC 2023,  ArtExpo New York 2021, 2022 & 2023,  Red Dot Miami 2021 & 2022,
M.A.D.S. Art galleries in Fuerteven Spain and Milan Italy 2021
