About the Item

Marshall Jones is a realist painter born in Atlanta Georgia, and presently working and living in New York City. From 2008 to 2015 Marshall was the recipient of numerous grants, travel funds, and scholarships, one of which being the Elizabeth Greenshields Grant which helped kickstart his career. He was also a ESKFF artist in residence at MANA contemporary in Jersey City. Throughout his career Marshall has strived to understand the chaos of humanity, and highlight the happy, sad, and bizarre experiences we all have as we work our way through the world. His work is a spotlight on our behavior, a mirror in which we see reflected the truth within our actions and realization that we are just as much a part of a whole as we are painfully alone. Marshall’s paintings reveal all the things we try to hide away. Marshall teaches figure drawing and painting at the Art Students League of New York, The New York Academy of Art, the Salmagundi Club, and National Arts Club. His work has shown in Denise Bibro Gallery, Lodge Gallery, Dacia Gallery, Abend Gallery, and Mark Miller Gallery. Marshall is also the co-founder and host of the Art Grind Podcast.
