Description

Jeffrey Filbert is a painter, sculptor, printmaker, and poet. As a poet, he often writes about life in the art studio, whether in memory as a young artist starting out or in the present day. The work is personal, both with depth and the lightness of touch by someone who can emphasize the joy in their life over the sorrow.
