About Jean Cherouny

 
 
  • Biography
    I have a unique perspective about painting emotional images. I travel the world to gain inspiration for my process and belief that all people can express in new and exciting ways. My process uses wheels as a paintbrush- painting with my rollerblades.  I am driven to create art based on the colors I see around me and the use of my moving body as a vehicle of creativity on the canvas. Beginning in 2008, I started painting canvases with my rollerblades. Now living in the Street Art Capital of the Caribbean, I continue to paint and share this vision and new perspective making my colorful abstract paintings for sale around the world.
