JP LONG

Born in Boston, MA, JP Long began studying illustration at an early age, laying the foundation for his learned appreciation of aesthetic, and his powerful creative skill. 
 
Under the tutelage of Emily White, a local seacoast New Hampshire painter, JP's vision and technique formed. However, it was not until he began working towards his Jewelry/Metal Arts degree from the California College of Art and Crafts, that JP's true vision and technique matured.
 
Bella Feldman, the prominent and critically acclaimed Bay Area sculptor, hired JP to assist in the creation of her work in the fall of 2000, and continues to employ his expertise. JP soon began his own work in glass and steel based upon natural tensions between opposing harmonies. His sculpture elaborates the dynamic fluidity and rigidity of these materials.
