If You Like Fantastical Oil Paintings,

you might like to visit the web site of Jon Ching, who is a talented artist par excellence, he is a self-trained artist originally from Kaneohe, Hawaii and currently lives and works in Los Angeles, above “Sheila Ann”

“Razzle Dazzle”

“Aquaria”

“Homestead”, “My more surreal creatures, where the line between flora and fauna are blurred, is in part my attempt at depicting some of this unseen magic,” he writes. “By placing them in a realistic setting among species we’re familiar with, I’m envisioning them into the real world. Maybe if we look close enough or long enough, we’ll catch a glimpse of them and my work won’t seem surreal anymore.” You can see Ching’s paintings at Corey Helford Gallery in Los Angeles starting August 14 and find prints, stickers, and postcards in his shop. Check out his Instagram for glimpses into his process and the real-life animals and plants that shape his works, what a talent he truly has.
