Jesse Howard

Jesse received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Ball State University, with a major in Commercial Art and a minor in Business Administration. One of his favorite instructors, Larry Graham encouraged him to pursue truth and spirituality in his subject matter. Eager to continue to develop his graphic art skills, he worked for a topographer in Chicago, but he wanted more control over his creativity.
Jesse rededicated himself to his pursuit of Fine Art. He began studying sculptors, such as Richard Hunt and Martin Puryear; He felt they had a grasp of space and materials. Since his rededication, his artwork has appeared in many galleries nationwide and his career has been covered in many publications. His first major one-person show in 1984 was with Zriny Gallery. He also exhibited with the Chicago Cultural Center, 5+5 In Perspectives In Black Art and has work in both public and private collections.
