Jack Vincent Barnhill has spent his life living and working in Europe, Africa, North and Central America and Asia. As a child Barnhill was drawn to the diverse beauty and complexity of the human face. At age 50, he began studying at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles. Portraiture expresses his fascination with humanity. He draws and paints until the image sees the light and reveals its essence.
