Jeff and P.J Quattlebaum are self-taught artists, although they admit they didn't choose to become artists, but somehow art chose them. Their inspiration and styles emerged, giving voice to their imagination and the evolution of the body of work in this exhibition. They reside in Ozark, Alabama where they are also involved in artistic expression through musical projects.
Jeff has been influenced by a number of artists, with Francis Bacon, Pink Floyd and Picasso among his favorites.
You can detect an abstract impressionism in some of Jeff's pieces. His works reflect multiple realities and
the interplay of "sound" and images, giving them energy. There's a power in Jeff's artistic process which often reflects an inner awareness evoking the inexpressible.
P.J gets her inspiration from rock concert posters and music itself. Her poster-style images capture the spirit of the subjects she portrays. Her art embodies vivid color fields which are often abstract, with a hint of the surreal. P.J's body of work also includes dramatic pencil portraits of John Lennon and Zakk Wylde, along with iconic paintings of Prince and Eddie Van Halen.
P.J has won many awards including the Congressional Art Award which hung in the U.S. Capitol in 1989.
