Win Jolley

"My paintings are either very objective or pure invention, as are the colors and the use of graphic elements that I apply to the paintings. I have recently started doing paintings of trout and fly fishermen and they combine my love of painting and my passion for fly fishing."

From 1960 to 1962 Win Jolley attended Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles where he studied with the "best of the best." After serving in the Army he returned to art school and received his BFA in 1967 from the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California.

As a member of the Watercolor Society of Oregon, Win has had his work accepted into the Coos Art Association 2002 Juried Art Show and the Watercolor Society of Oregon's 2003 Juried Fall Show and has shown his work in Florence and Eugene. This year his Yellowstone Bison I was juried into the Spring Aqueous Media WSO Show in April 2008.

Win Jolley's paintings are in private collections in Oregon, California, Texas, Ohio, and New Mexico, and he has done a number of locally commissioned portraits.
