 ARTIST'S STATEMENT

" I see life as a metamorphosis, infinite, a cyclical flow of energy, a universal energy with no beginning and no end. I paint that energy. When I paint a flower, I am that flower. Sometimes, when I am painting, I realize that I am unaware of what I am painting ------ Only that I am painting.

I studied art at New York's famous Art Student League. I studied anatomical drawing with the famous artist Gustav Rehberger, through whom, I learned to see as well as sense the life force in the human form and how to put this energy in my renderings. Gary Faigan gave me the structure and the wonderful Michael Burban the joy and sense of accomplishment. Through Richard Goetz I learned how to use pastels as well as to see form and colors and how to put together good composition.

Hilary Holmes gave me knowledge of the palette and the discipline necessary to paint realism, while Nelson Shanks taught me the difference between sketching and painting a portrait. Thomas Fogarty and Oldrich Teply taught in myself not to doubt my abilities.

The famous abstract artist, Richard Pousette-Dart gave me an understanding of abstract thought and emotion. This understanding gave me the freedom to express my feelings in abstract form on canvas."

Background

Jordan has enjoyed an unusually broad and diversified background in the creative arts. Her artistic activities began in childhood, as a dancer, actress and singer. She has performed on stage and screen, concerts and clubs, as well as TV in the states as well as abroad. Her song repertoire ranges from Puccini to jazz.

During her most active years in the performing arts, Jordan spent as much time as possible developing her creative abilities. She designed fabrics, clothing, jewelry, and sculpts in stone and clay and her hand painted ties scarves, glassware and bottles sold in several of the chic Madison Avenue Boutiques. Today, Jordan's One of a Kind fabric designs are being commissioned and worn by a select number of people. Jordan paints abstracts, surreal impressions, as well as actual portraits on shoes, handbags, scarves, clothing, hats, ties, and on occasion even on people. Each design is a unique one of a kind work of art.

Jordan is mediagenic and therefore no stranger to the media. Jordan has appeared on numerous radio and TV talk shows and been interviewed by news shows locally and nationally The New York Post's famous Cindy Adams wrote about Jordan in her column and along with other columnists who are fascinated with her visionary paintings and illuminating celebrity portraits. Jordan was interviewed at her studio by NBC TV News about her portrait of John Lennon entitled "Strawberry Fields". Jordan's Madonna painting entitled "Mad-Donna"

Jordan studied art full time for four years at The Art Students League in New York City and since then has had numerous one-woman art shows in the states as well as abroad. Her works hang in collections around the world. Jordan's psychic impressionist portraits have made her a favorite of the celebrity world and her visionary paintings and impressionist floral paintings are in several of New York City's most famous galleries, Jordan was one of the artists chosen to be represented by the world famous Grand Central Gallery until its close.

Jordan has painted a number of celebrities, Shirley MacLaine, Tom WOlfe, among others. Jordan currently accepts commissions for her One Of A Kind creations. Her creations run from one of a kind garments, hand painted fabrics or shoes, as well as portraits of people and pets. Jordan loves the challenge of working with interior designers to create works of art specially designed to conform to the special needs of their clients. These commissions have kept Jordan very busy but she is currently organizing a new one-woman show entitled, Souls-Mate. This show celebrates the human condition. -love from beginning to end.
