Jay Mora-Shihadeh was born in the greater metropolitan area of Philadelphia, Pa. He attended The University of the Arts, in Philadelphia, Pa. receiving a B.F.A. in painting and drawing, as well as a certificate in Art Therapy. Jay’s artwork has evolved from experimenting with representational to abstract expressionism. He employs bold color that is direct and expressive. Physical, sometimes brutal uses of line shape and gesture are the hallmarks of his work. The artwork he creates today leans toward the mysterious. The work is emotional and somewhat ethereal in its exploration of color and form. He strives to grasp the unknown, the subconscious. As both an artist and a poet, spontaneity and process is as important to him as the end result. Currently he resides in Sarasota, FL

Defining abstract art is not a straight forward task. Unlike many other styles, abstract art does not portray objects as they appear in real life. Before the foundation of this style, artists focused on depicting human civilization and the world of nature. Abstract art experiment with the use of texture, tone, and light perception. Through abstract art, artists express their feelings rather than particular objects or scenes.

Hello, Just saw your comment. Thanks for the input. There are non-objective and objective abstract art. Non-objective not portraying any physical objects whether abstracted or not. Objective portraying abstracted yet still recognizable objects.
