Jay Myers, Ladysmith
Member Since January 2008
Artist Statement Born in Alert Bay; BC his father a Norwegian fisherman, his mother a part aboriginal, was encouraged from an early age to draw.

Being mostly self taught Jay uses more than just acrylic paints when he paints
and uses found objects for his assembleges. He attended art classes at
Malaspina University for a year, but decided to leave because he felt limited
by the constraints of what was being taught and presented in class.

Following his own path, Jay beleives that art should be constantly
re-defined. His goal is to keep the audience guessing and thinking about
what other things that might be present in his pieces. The witt, and cheekiness
of cubist and expressionist art really lends itself to the statements and humour
apparent in his work.

Jay has shown his art up and down Vancouver island and looks forward to and is
looking for a physical location to start a "Modernist Movement" on Vancouver
Island called "SMO Driv'n the Modernist Movement". With the combined efforts
of Jay and Irene and her upcoming web company "Island Art Net" will be driving this movement island wide and hopefully move across Canada. This movement will
hopefully educate the public more about alternative modernist art.
