“Soul Doodling”
The Wellington Art Society is pleased to host Scott Jeffries as featured Artist and Speaker at their next meeting, 5:30pm on Wednesday, April 10, 2024 at the Wellington Community Center located at 12150 Forest Hill Blvd, Wellington, FL 33414. For more information please contact presidentofwas@gmail.com.
If you wonder how he creates his spectacular paintings, Scott Jeffries, who’s been doodling since childhood and still has his grandmother’s paintbox and brushes, will tell you “Don’t be afraid to paint outside the lines.” That describes not just his art but his life. Jeffries has reinvented himself as a professional artist after a series of yet unbroken high school swimming records, being an All Star Division 1 athlete, having a successful legal career as a Public Defender and more.
Jeffries’ art begins with a total absence of sketching or planning, as it blossoms spontaneously into a beautiful melody of faces and shapes that create symphonies of color sometimes spilling over and off the canvas. And he will tell you his lack of a formal art education has allowed him freedom of artistic creativity unencumbered by established norms.
