Jeff Quiros Artist

This is a bit of a departure for me given the busy background. It conveys an emotional feeling of fuzzy perception like looking through a window in the rain. The impressions are clear, however, and you get the idea you may have met this woman before.

A new favorite on a recurring theme of humanity. The roles individuals play in the game of life intrigues me. Each person is unique and important, even vital, yet an integral part of a larger view.


In much of my work you can see the distinct influence of the rock art posters which grew out of the San Francisco music scene of the 60’s and 70’s. A scene I was present for. This one leans heavily on the inspiration of rock poster master Victor Moscoso in its use of juxtaposed colors creating an eye-jarring effect.

A bit of a departure … starting with circular and chain background elements, I fleshed in the face that emerged. I think it would make a cool album cover.

A Pop Art tribute to Michelle Stafford, a long time soap actress and acquaintance of mine. This says more about my perception of her personality than her physical looks.

“All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.” Federico Fellini

This is certainly true for me … some works more than others. This one, “Forest 2”, is definitely personal. We experience an infinity of moments in our lives … the best reason I know to keep on going and always willing and open and expanding … even finding myself naked in a dystopian forest.

Humanity all lined up to support one another and live life as a thriving group.

Sometimes in flipping through my earlier work, a feeling of pride and accomplishment wells up inside me … egotistical? … maybe … but I nailed it on this one.

Every once in a while I take a step back from a work I’ve created, and I honestly enjoy it all over again … I say to myself, “now that is good!” And I get a big grin on my face. ‘Vision 4” is such a work … what do you think?

Sometimes inspiration sneaks up on me. I created this face and named it “Hush”. It seemed hauntingly familiar to me. When I posted it, it got several comments, ‘it’s Jimi”. I realized I had been seeing many images of this talented man because it was the 52nd anniversary of his untimely passing. With the encouragement of friends, I saw it, and now I can’t unsee it. I added “Jimi Hendrix” to the title.
