 Jack Cochran cannot remember a time when he was not drawing or showing an interest in art. His interest only grew as he got older. He attended the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky on a Donovan scholarship, enrolling at the age of 65. He earned a BA and a BFA degree and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Significant? Well... Jack is a late deafened person and the first Deaf to graduate from the UK Arts Department. He works in a variety of media, although oil painting and drawing are the focus of his work. Jack's art has been in numerous exhibits in and around Lexington, KY. His work is in private collections and exhibited in various art galleries. To return what he has been given, Jack teaches three art classes a week at the local YMCA and at his art studio in Victorian Square’s Artist Attic. Being a late-deafened person, Jack uses the language of art as his visual communication mode. He states that there is no language barrier to understanding a beautiful piece of art. In addition to classes at the University of Kentucky and other art workshops and classes for fine art painting, he has studied the techniques of printing, screen prints, woodcuts and monotype and intends to continue this pursuit. His hope is to continue the study of art in its many forms, especially art history and art philosophy classes. |
