‘I PAINT NATURE'S BEAUTY IN ABSTRACT FORM'

Contemporary artist Jeff Muhs is known for his innovative, abstract style. From his hand-built studio in Southampton, New York, he works primarily with oil on canvas, but also experiments with concrete to create striking sculptures.

I TAKE ARTISTIC INSPIRATION FROM MY SURROUNDINGS

I grew up in the Hamptons and my father was a hunting and fishing guide, so I was out on the water with him as a young child from sunrise to sunset. I’ve always been passionate about drawing and painting, so it seemed natural for me to study at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, where I learned the traditional techniques of oil painting. I moved back to the Hamptons afterwards and have lived and worked here ever since.
