  1. Being Gerald’s younger brother, I’ve witnessed the evolution of his art. I’ve always been proud of my brothers work. I’m happy now to see his spirit dance.

  2. I find Gerald’s work both inspirational and motivational. His use of lights and colors bring life to his work. His spiritual entities are powerful and revealing. The genius of his work is indeed a gift to mankind.

  3. I FOUND HIS WORK TO BE DIFFERENT IN A GOOD KIND OF WAY. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS MAN GO FAR WITH HIS ARTWORK. I ONE DAY WOULD LIKE TO OWN SOME OF HIS WORK SO CONTINUE PAINTING IN SHARING YOUR VISION WITH OTHERS.

  4. GERALD’S WORK IS BOTH INSPIRING AND THOUGHT PROVOKING. BEING AN ARTIST MYSELF I UNDERSTAND IDENTIFYING WITH YOUR INNER SPIRIT BEING EXPRESSED IN YOUR WORK. SO I SAY TO GERALD KEEP THE SPIRIT FLOWING AND ENJOY THE RIDE.

  5. Not only have I had the privilege of seeing Gerald Jones’ art on display, but I own one of his pieces. Mr. Jones work is thought provoking

    All who have seen Mr. Jones painting in my home marvel at his work, and are surprised when I tell them where I got the painting from. Some have a desire of one day purchasing a painting from him.

    I believe given the opportunity and the exposure Mr. Jones could go very far in the art world. With each of pieces there is a story to tell.

    God bless you Jerry, and I pray that you scale to the utmost high.

  6. I have admired the work of Gerald Jones for many years now. I remember when Art was just a hobby for him. I saw his love for his work go from a hobby to a all out obsession to express his inner feelings and bring them to life on canvas. He has done some remarkable work that was truly unforgettable. He once did a crucified black Jesus that made the hair on your arms rise when you looked into the eyes of Christ. He sold it to a friend of mine (most likely for little or nothing for he was truly a struggling artist at the time) I tried using every trick in the book to get my friend to sell it to me but he wouldn’t budge as a matter of fact he hung it over his bed in his bedroom and there it stayed for many years until his untimely passing a few years ago. That painting truly showed Gerald’s ability to express his cultural impressions on canvas. Notice the eyes in his work they are very compelling. His recent work with “The Spirits” shows his brilliant use of colors that seems to make his creatures jump right off the canvas. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next. He is a very creative talent with a vivid and sometimes controversial imagination that always leaves you with the impression that you’ve witnessed something special. Gerald you work has brought joy to a lot of people please keep up the good work.

  7. I HAVE BEEN PRIVILEGED TO SEE AND OWN SEVERAL OF GERALD JONES’ PAINTINGS. THE COLORS HE CHOOSES AND THE MOVEMENTS HE CREATES IN HIS PIECES ARE ASTONISHING. HIS ART WORK IS EXOTIC AND DEEPLY IMAGINATIVE.

    I CAN SAY WITH THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE THAT GERALD JONES WILL BE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR TO ART WORLD.
