Jon likes to highlight one of his most recent completed works to share with you his enjoyment of painting.

Welcome to the fine art oil paintings and portraits of Jon J. Krider, an American artist, working exclusively in oils these days. Jon's primary genre is portrait painting but also paints other subjects as well. He enjoys painting using a traditional classic realism and naturalistic approach. Portrait painting is one of the most rewarding art forms, for it captures the physical likeness as well as the personality and soul of the person, while still creating a wonderful piece of art.

On the Easel

On the easel are works in process. Jon enjoys showing his current works as they progress at various stages to completion. Being a self-taught  artist himself, he hopes that others can learn a thing or two from his style of work, and use this knowledge to better their own painting style.

"To make the subject of the portrait come to life in a way that thrills and moves the soul; to capture the personality, as well as the appearance, and to try to give the portrait a beating heart... This is my challenge and my goal."
