"People often comment, in viewing my work, that they feel the 'life force', the energy, in the vibrant colors and movement. It's my expression of the magic in nature." |

Jean Bradley has always known she would be a professional artist.
Art has been part of her life since childhood. Jean's formal training in painting initially centered on oils. For
the last thirty years, however, she concentrated on watercolors. The last six years she has exploded into acrylics.
Color is Jean's passion. She loves the exploration of light and dark values and shapes in her paintings. Jean has studied with nationally-acclaimed artists, including John
Peisley, Lisa Forster, Stephen Quiller, as well as Peter Berg, a portrait artist. In 1985, a two-week watercolor
trip to Denmark with Lisa Forster, AWS, elevated Jean to a new artistic plateau. The artwork of Jean Bradley has been featured in one-person shows
in New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Kauai. She has been the artist-in-residence at several galleries,
actively involved in art associations, and the recipient of several awards for her paintings. She has her work
on Kauai at East-West Interiors in Kapaa, Visions Gallery at Morro Bay in California, and A Gift For All Seasons
on Oahu. Jean and her husband, Rik
Phillips, exhibited their work at the first husband-wife
show at the Kauai Museum in July-August, 1997. Rik Phillips is a well-known sculptor. Jean teaches watercolor as
well as acrylics. In 2007 Jean returned from Kauai and Kona, HI where she conducted
a three day workshop for the Kona Art’s center. It was so successful she returned for additional workshops on Kona
as well as Kauai in 2008. In December of 2008 Jean Bradley had a one person show at the Exposure
Gallery in Palm Springs, CA and is currently represented by Red Dot Gallery in Palm Springs. Jean and her husband Rick Phillips recently moved to Palm Springs,
California.
