Jeffrey Hart Morris

I paint portraits of ordinary people who have lost their lives in tragic world events – and their memories have been lost through the passage of time. But they should be remembered for who they were, taken away just when they were living life to the fullest, dreaming of happiness and a better life.

In most cases, I am working from very old, grainy, black and white photo references. Therefore, my ambition is to create an interpretation of my subject’s inner and outer beauty through colour and the purity of light. I draw inspiration from great artists such as Jacques-Louis David, John Singer Sargent and Philip Alexius de László.
