Jack
Henslee's art has taken him from coast to coast and many a
town
in-between, but truth be told, he was born and bred a Texan.
In fact,
except for a ten-year sojourn amid the glitz and glamour of
Las Vegas, Fort Worth and its Lone Star ladies
have always inveigled him home.
Of course it wasn't always sultry seductresses and
coquettish country
girls.
Jack's romance with art began the first time he was able to
hold a
pencil. His boyhood was spent admiring professional
illustrators like Bob Peak, and as a young artist, Jack
found himself inspired and impressed by the painstaking
truth of realism and traditional disciplines. Largely
self-taught, and possessed of a rare gift for detail and
drive, Jack's early creative endeavors concentrated upon
wildlife studies and Native American subjects. As is often
the case with aspiring young artists, however, practical
distractions developed. The wildlife and Native American art
sparked affection within himself, but no true passion.
It was time for a change. In college, Jack had turned his
studies
toward architecture, convinced by his peers and loved ones
that it was
impossible to develop a stable income as an artist. Visions
of
Frank Lloyd Wright aside, Jack's professional
focus gradually shifted toward the more reliable and
creatively-challenging trade of illustration and graphic
design.
After establishing himself and honing his craft for two
decades in
Texas, Jack was lured by the sultry perfume of desert
breezes. His creative talents were placed on loan to the
posh resorts and swank casinos of
Las Vegas where he spent the next ten years as
one of the industry's most prolific and sought-after
artisans. He reigned at the top of an exclusive and
extremely competitive short list of graphic designers,
garnering countless Addy Awards for his clients, and acclaim
for his firms.
Personal creativity grew increasingly weary of reading aloud
from
someone else's script, alas, and Jack became disenchanted by
the exhaustive pace and repetitive nature of his adopted
trade. It was while toiling amid Hilton billboards and
Caesars Palace tournament banners that Jack's soul demanded
that it was time to apply his talents to a path of his own
desires; it was
time to devote himself to what he
affectionately refers to as his "pretty ladies."
And, in those pretty ladies he has, at last, embraced his
true passion.
