Helen Steele Figurative Art

“My compositions are never preconceived, yet my themes are recurrent: The use of the figure as the means of investigating various psychological states: harmony, serenity, anxiety, isolation….I work in multiple layers with buried images and words. Paint is wiped off and layers are peeled yielding the emerging image. Symbolic markings, personal imagery, shapes and words appear, questions arise. As I work and rework my canvas the image appears sometimes only to elude me then to reassert itself much later”

Ubiquiti Customer Story in Russia

Companies are moving away from direct advertising, whose metrics are hard to calculate, to original video content that is created, not to “sell”, but to engage. Video is a great way to excite people about your product/service and your brand. Recently, I worked with a high tech client, Ubiquiti Networks, to tell stories about their customers and their products.

Manuel Palos is a San Francisco sculptor born and raised in Mexico and son of a shoemaker. In this video he tells his story that while a child in Mexico he made clay figures to sell on the street.

Marco Martínez – “Artist of Nature”

“The visual fantasy of Marco Martinez (Canar 1953) basks in the Edenic forest in subtropical Ecuador, which emanates some magic and mystery. The artist penetrates devoutly in nature, trying to interpret their secrets through the countless shades of color and the effects of light on plant skin. The vibrant range of truths that fills the surface of his works, forms a harmonically structured orchestration, on which stand the intense reds and yellows. A movement luminosity envelope fuses with the foliage […]
Jenny Hunter Groat – “Her Way”

SOME ARTISTS SAY THEY FEAR THE BLANK CANVAS, others say they fear other things., ALTHOUGH I AM NEVER NOW AFRAID OF THE BLANK CANVAS, I HAVE OFTEN, IN MY LIFETIME, FEARED SOMETHING.

Richard Jett

Companies, organizations, products, and services...all have stories to tell. Video offers the opportunity to connect emotionally with viewers and make a great first impression. At heart, I am a storyteller, and yet I am fully aware of the practical and logistical needs of a business and its clients. One of my strengths is helping to “find the story” and then creating a vivid and compelling video efficiently and succinctly but one with “heart and passion”

Recommendations:

"I had the great pleasure of working with Richard this past summer when he made a video about my artwork and me. Richard made everything easy and his editing skills were perfect. I found Richard finely attuned to the work itself, to how I expressed myself and what the important factors were in making a great video. He even noticed the music I was playing and took off from there for the background music for my video. I have had great success in using my video to promote my work online and as a means of providing information to galleries. I would recommend Richard to anyone."
June Yokell, Visual Artist

“Jett fully harnesses the power of the medium that can only be told by a visual storyteller.”
Teri Cundall, Propville Directory, propville.com

“Jett is a dream to work with! He really understands how to tell a visual story. I’d worked with Richard over many decades where he created stunning visuals as a Director of Photography on high end commercials… so I knew his capabilities well … yet, he still surpassed my expectations … giving his full attention even though it was a smaller job, being flexible and willing to make this a terrific piece, at a very fair price and with little notice. Best of all, there’s no diva personality that often goes along with a true master of the art”
Allison Bliss, Allison Bliss Consulting, allisonbliss.com

“I've know RIchard since 1992 and had the pleasure of working with him on numerous projects for company's like Yahoo! and Levi's. Richard is a creative talent, highly organized, has gobs of experience and brings energy and creativity to everything he does. In particular I notice that Richard is usually a step or two ahead of the technological curve.”
