Artist Statement:
My life has been an
overwhelming, but fantastic
journey. I have learned the
importance of family, the
power of the Circle,
unconditional love and
creativity during my journey.
Because of my journey, I am
able to create these
paintings.
I was born and raised in
Newark, New Jersey in 1953. I
have had a love for color ever
since I have been old enough
to hold a crayon. I am a
self-taught artist. Each
painting is a Jack Anderson
original. A moment captured in
time. These paintings all
reflect my Native-American and
Afro-American background along
with my love of music. Every
brushstroke, every color
combination, every finished
piece is a part of me, a part
of my soul and my journey
through life.
I have a very wide range of
influences: my wife, Cynthia,
John Coltrane, Willie Butler,
Malcolm X, Russell Means,
Picasso, Sitting Bull, Billie
Holiday, Jacob Lawrence, Paul
Gauguin and Joanne Shenandoah,
just to name a few.
