Jeffrey Odiorne


My paintings range from urban impressions to abstract landscapes, seascapes and skyscapes. While the subject matter varies, color remains at the center of everything I do.

The painting at the top, "Dusk", reflects the complexity and energy of the city. "Myakka Sky #2" represents the natural beauty Florida's Gulf Coast where I live and work today.

Growing up in rural Chester County, Pennsylvania, on a farm owned by artist Wharton Esherick, whose studio was nearby, I was fascinated by the creativity that I saw everywhere, every day.

I studied Fine Art at Cornell University and earned a BFA from the Philadelphia Museum College of Art.

After a career in advertising in New York City as an Art Director and Creative Director, I turned fully to painting. Ahead are over seventy of my works — each built entirely from my imagination.
