Senior Artist and Instructor

Jim is a trained architect, professional craftsman and woodworker who moved easily into fine arts and painting. Architecture is at the heart of Wildman’s thinking as an artist.

JIM WILDMAN has maintained a lifelong fascination for the power of images and carries that thinking into his paintings.

His works are in the philosophy or style of ILLUSIONISM.

Illusionism in art history means the artistic tradition in which artists create a work of art that appears to share the physical space with the viewer.

Wildman builds up cumulative layers of in both his realistic and non-representational painting. His works begin with brushing or laying in colors; one layer after another with a brush or palette knife. He is comfortable with fine detail or placing big swaths of color onto his canvas. His paintings evolve in stages.
