Jehoiakim Santos

Jehoiakim Santos is a multi faceted artist that developed a deep connection in the world of art. His vast interest in the emotional beauty are widely seen in his work. “I like emotions, they inspire me in everyday basis..they’re like roses, beautiful and yet thorny.”

His fight through his serious illness made him an ideal artist for himself and he makes himself at ease by venting through all of his art work. Jehoiakim is also a writer and a poet and a financial supporter to St. Jude Hospital. Currently he’s also studying forensic science to continue his family tradition. “though I always keep a handful work, I will never stop painting and supporting art, this is the only love of my life..”

The use of the oil medium was inspired by the artist Frank Frazetta’s solid form in his art work. The consistency and the texture are well blended and can evolve into a new dimension of color that unknowingly exists in the color wheel. Jehoiakim referred to it as the “fairy dust of art mediums”.
