About the Instructor
As a visual artist and proud Key West native, the island landscape has always been Jack McDonald’s muse. He’s also had the pleasure of working with some of the local greats like Rick Worth and John Martini. Primarily interested in street art, Jack is influenced by local color as well as art in public places, he is driven to stretch the boundaries of “street art,” with the hope to raise awareness and establish it as a more legitimate artform. Through the use of whimsical illustrations, bright colors and shapes, his desire is to have a positive influence on the Key West art scene, while adding an element of familiarity, exploration, and discovery.
