Tyree Jones-Evans

She/Her

Denver based painter Tyree Jones-Evans uses her knowledge of color and human expression to create poignant portraits. While her primary discipline is oil painting, her work veers towards a multi-disciplinary practice as she occasionally includes photography, drawing, and collage.

She is inspired by light and how it manipulates color, effectively allowing it to foster moods. Her love for color, light, and expression is fundamental, and it continues to unlock potential for different representations within her work. She believes these three visual elements can communicate universally, which creates a deeper exploration into what can be said through a portrait.

She has had work displayed in CVA Gallery, Niza Knoll Gallery, and has been featured on CPR for her work.
