Jack Coronella began painting 16 years ago. Jack’s long interest in photography wanted to go further into painting with watercolor, acrylic and then oil. He is also a retired IT consultant and focuses mostly on oil painting. “It’s about capturing the unique light and color that exists for only a moment”. He enjoys painting cityscapes the most. He grew up in Boston and enjoys the intensity of the city. He likes capturing color and light at night found around the city with its dark settings, natural evening, or twilight settings.

The self-taught painter learned methods and techniques from local artists, art technique literature and art exhibits. He enjoys participating in art exhibits at local venues such as Fornax Bakery in Roslindale, art association galleries and currently the FP3 Gallery in Boston.

He is a member of the Rockport Art Association & Museum, Marblehead Arts Association, and the North Shore Arts Association.
