Jadon Kulling was introduced to the visual arts and music at an early age. His grandmother, Ilona Novaky, was an oil painter and a poet and she encouraged him to excel in art and music alike. As his parents were musicians, both art and music have become entwined and embedded in his life. Kulling will be the featured artist at Sutter Creek Gallery during the month of September, with an opening reception on Saturday, September 2, from 2 to 5 p.m.
Kulling, who is currently studying biology at Folsom Lake College, works in colored pencil. One of the reasons he chose this medium is its affordability as a college student. In his artwork he aims for high degree of realism, saturation and detail. As an aspiring biology teacher, one of my favorite subjects is nature, though I dabble in architecture, still life and portraiture.” He was introduced to pencil art in elementary school and began entering his artwork in the Amador County Fair in 2nd grade. Awards such as the Spinetta Wildlife Award and Best of Show encouraged Kulling to press on creating as a child. One of his goals with his art “is to inspire other young artists to share their work and develop their talents as it is never too early to start marketing yourself and making a difference in the world.”
Sutter Creek Gallery invites you to meet Jadon Kulling at the September 2 reception to view his work. He is one of twenty-three local artists exhibiting at the gallery located at 40 Main Street, in the heart of Sutter Creek.
