About Me

My photo
Paramus, New Jersey, United States
No, this in not a blog about gardening in any way, but a journal of my journey to become a professional landscape painting artist. For years, I’ve given my paintings as wedding gifts without thinking of profiting in some way from it. I worked for 18 years at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC as a computer programmer. I have been a painter since 1990, coincidentally, when I started working at the Met. I watched Bob Ross do his thing on Channel 13 in New York and decided I could do this, too. I have no formal training. I incorporate Bob's wet-on-wet technique for sky and water. My subject matter is covered bridges, lighthouses, fishing village scenes, barns, etc. Maine, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, Nova Scotia and Spain are some of the places I have painted. My style is detailed and sometimes people think a photo of the painting is an actual photo of the scene. I hope to continue and grow in this medium. I also like to cook & dance. I am also a committed Christian. I am taking commissions - painting your landscapes style photos or your vacation home. Prices on request. contact me - Jackmck@juno.com my website is www.artofjackmckenzie.com

Art of Jack Mckenzie 2021 Calendar

This is my annual Art of Jack Mckenzie calendar containing the paintings I did in 2020. I did not do enough to fill all 12 months, so I added a couple from previous years. I am continuing to use Zazzle. Hopefully I will get more sales this year, since it's coming out before Thanksgiving. Last year, it was towards the end of the year when people had already made their calendar choices. 

There are paintings of lighthouses, covered bridges and fishing harbors from Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, Vermont , Block Island, Newfoundland, and upstate New York.

Here are a couple of the paintings contained in the Calendar
