Jared William Van Cleve

    "Art is never finished, only abandoned."    - Leonardo Da Vinci

In Van Cleve's work, you will find an imitation of life that is close to its natural state. This is especially true in his photography, which has been inspired by such photographers as, Henri Cartier Bresson, Paul Strand, and the likes. Another big inspiration of his artwork comes from the Impressionists of the 19th Century. These rebel artists broke free from the constraints of Realism and created a domino effect that brings us the wildest abstract works we see today. Though this inspiration stems more from their brushwork, then it does their ambitions to stray from nature. Trying to find the beauty and aesthetic pleasures in everyday life is the challenge that keeps Van Cleve inspired. This beauty is all around us...and in this increasingly busy world, its good to slow down to smell the coffee....and take a visual timeout.
