From an early age, Jim Clements has been passionate about drawing and painting, and says he has no problem finding a variety of subject matter. “God’s beauty is all around us, and the endless opportunity He’s provided to artists is staggering. When I see the beauty of nature and all the unique people around me every day, often in ordinary situations, it’s exciting to think of how I can incorporate those in future paintings.”

Jim is a member of the Portrait Society of America, Oil Painters of America, Kansas Academy of Oil Painters and American Plains Artists. He has attended a number of demonstrations and workshops by notable painters throughout the years, and conducts workshops himself. His studio is located in El Dorado, KS.
