ABOUT THE ARTIST: Kristi Jones was named after Howard Chandler Christy, who was a 20th century illustrator and distant relative. Kristi is also related to Clyde Connell, one of Louisiana's most famous female artists. Kristi developed an innate artistic ability from being raised in an artistic home, which had an art studio and library. Both parents obtained art degrees. Her father has placed (numerous times) in the top tenth percentile in state and federal duck stamp art contests, and her mother has sold work at a local gallery. Kristi studied art at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts (NOAFA), and is also self-taught. She has exhibited at shows and galleries, including several group shows in northwest Caddo Parish, including Centenary College's Meadows Museum of Art and Centenary's Magale Library, Artspace in downtown Shreveport, Smith Mason Gallery, and the Bailey Gallery. In December 2011, Kristi was awarded a visual arts grant from the Shreveport Regional Arts Council (SRAC), and became a Juried Roster Artist in 2012. In 2015, her artwork became part of a permanent exhibit for the new University Medical Center of New Orleans. In 2018, her artwork was chosen for the 20th anniversary of the Sunflower Trail & Festival. Most of her work depicts the flavors, architecture, landscapes and culture of Louisiana and the South.

Hi, thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I've been painting seriously for over ten years. Prior to that I designed tropical jewelry and created mosaic art. I enjoy producing work that I'm passionate about, the kind of work I’d rather keep than sell, work that’s painful to part with! Lol, but, I have pulled pieces off my walls for customers who just have to have them! That’s when I know I found the right owner!!! I paint mainly with oils....I love the richness and texture; however, I often switch to watercolors which I especially enjoy finishing with pen and ink! I’ve started painting in oil pastels last year! I love the unique textures and diverse look that each medium offers! I've also started creating batiks in the last two years. My inspirations vary, but one of my main themes is New Orleans life...enchanting courtyards and fountains, Pat O’Briens drinks, Louisiana cuisine, tropical landscapes, and historical architecture. I also paint seascapes; North Louisiana cotton bolls and fields; exotic hotels and pools, and portraits of Warhol and Liberace! Just whatever the mood strikes at the time! I completed a juicy house portrait that was very difficult to part with when I finally finished! I picked on that painting over 6 months and loved how it turned out!!! Lol! On particularly challenging days, I engage in Expressionist paintings that I refer to as my “crazy art” or “art therapy,” expressing what it feels like to struggle as an artist! Thanks again, and I hope you enjoy browsing my work! Please support artists....we are definitely abnormal, and like Van Gogh, we can always use the money! Kristi
