Chelonis is not a painter in the traditional sense. He is a poet with a regular brush. Chelonis R. Jones was born and raised in California and New York. The pictorial representation of life in all its facets, with a very critical view of all social classes... not from a position of comfort, but with all the human and inhuman peculiarities that make up society... that is the trademark of a Chelonis R. Jones....
It's not about highlighting the scandal - it's about honesty - and out of that comes what we so often find scandalous.
Works of art from the USA: Chelonis' works polarize. They are beautiful, controversial and critical. It is worthwhile to linger in order to be able to grasp the spectrum of thoughts.
