SUMMARY:Rare Wildlife Revealed: The James Fiorentino Traveling Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Artist James Fiorentino of Hunterdon County\, NJ\, has won national acclaim for his ability to create uncanny likenesses of people. The youngest artist ever inducted into the prestigious New York Society of Illustrators\, James uses his self-taught watercolor expression to paint some of the most recognized faces in the world\, from sports icons and presidents to Nobel Prize winners and CEOs. His award-winning art is showcased in museums\, galleries\, and private collections across the globe\, and his story has been told on national television and in the pages of magazines and newspapers. \nFiorentino uses his trademark detail and realism in watercolor to paint New Jersey’s most endangered and vulnerable wildlife species. His evocative artwork inspires viewers through his life-like depictions of rare wildlife in their natural surroundings. His paintings truly bring wildlife to life on paper\, and in doing so\, his art helps to educate and engage viewers about the precipitous declines that many of these species have undergone. \n“Though their painting styles differ\, Fiorentino is adept\, like Neiman\nwas\, at drawing\, which is of course the most fundamental skill required\nto succeed as a figurative artist. Very few wildlife artists that I know\nof can handle the human figure in convincing fashion. Fiorentino has\ndistinguished himself as a wildlife artist with skill and versatility\nthat positions him above the rest in this regard.” \nIn keeping with his expanding body of work\, James is a signature member of the Society of Animal Artists and Artists for Conservation in addition to the American and New Jersey Watercolor Societies and the Salmagundi Club. He also serves as a trustee for The Raptor Trust and D & R Greenway Land Trust\, both in New Jersey. \nRare Wildlife Revealed: The James Fiorentino Traveling Art Exhibition is sponsored by Omni Distribution\, LLC\, Flying Fish Brewing Company\, Merrill G. & Emita Hastings Foundation\, Studio 7 Fine Art Gallery\, and Somerset Patriots. \nThis exhibition is presented in partnership with Conserve Wildlife Foundation
