Enjoy works from the Anyone Can Draw & Paint class at The J.

We celebrate Murray’s 20 years of teaching Anyone Can Draw & Paint at The J!  The class celebrates the talents of this diverse group of artists of all ages and levels. Murray Keshner was Corporate Art Director for Funk & Wagnalls Publishing Corporation. He retired in 1994 and taught painting in New York and New Jersey. Artist’s Statement:  “I believe that a work of art is a creative process that unfolds in natural manner.  As I paint, I trust my instincts, so that the results are as loose as possible. Finding colors and shapes that are not necessarily true to nature make the painting a more personal experience. As I tell my students, ‘When you paint, you are the creator. You can move mountains and reshape the world.’”

JCC Fine Art Gallery Hours:
Monday – Thursday, 9 a.m. – 9 p.m.
Friday & Sunday, 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.
