Self-portrait, age 50 (2016) Painting by Jim Fischer

Jim Fischer is a contemporary artist based in Jersey City. A self-taught painter, Fischer began his artistic journey at the age of seven, first showcasing his work in the hallway of his elementary school, where he impressed others with his understanding of how the sky meets the earth.

Over the years, Fischer has explored a variety of artistic periods and styles. His early work focused on 'junk art,' creating sculptures from found objects. He then moved on to pastel and watercolor still lifes, representational paintings of everyday life, and copies of masterworks. His practice has since expanded to include experimental imagery, leaded glass, mosaics, furniture design and construction, garden design, and interior design.

Fischer continues to embrace a wide range of disciplines, driven by the inspiration of the moment. He firmly believes that if another person can achieve something, so can he.
