Jeff Faust, 1952 | Surrealist painter

Jeff Faust, American painter, has fond memories of spending hours getting lost in art books that his parents kept round the house as a child.
Each page told a story, both about the artist themselves, and of their work and this fed his eager mind that to create art is not just an amazing ability to possess, but that it was also his calling.

He remembers looking at the work of Masters such as Picasso and Miró and being lost in their world as his own stories would unfold from each of their paintings.
Jeff Faust hopes viewers of his acrylic on canvas work can create their own stories when looking at his paintings.
"It often surprises me what collectors see in my work," he says. "My hope is that each piece can be looked at in very different ways by different people. It's more than just visual, it's a story to be told…a poem on each canvas".
