Jeremy Lipking, 1975 | Figurative / Landscape painter

Jeremy Lipking🎨, who was in Santa Monica, California, is the son of a professional illustrator Ronald Lipking.

While he emphasizes that he did not begin his formal studies until his late teens, the young artist’s early exposure to art gave him a sense of taste, perhaps the most important component of an artistic education.

Lipking🎨 found himself most inspired by historic painters who combined the figurative tradition of the nineteenth century European art academies with an emphasis on the naturalistic landscape.

Lipking🎨 enrolled in the California Art Institute, where he dedicated himself to long hours of drawing and painting, and now teaches his skills in art workshops throughout the country.

A versatile painter, Lipking’s artistic output includes landscapes and still lifes, however he feels especially compelled to paint the most classical of artistic subjects, the human figure.
