Artist Spotlight: Jaimon Caceres
Jaimon Caceres is an accomplished colored pencil artist based in Raleigh, NC. He grew up on a small family farm in western North Carolina. His artistic career began as a ballet dancer. Following an unfortunate injury Jaimon hung up his dance shoes and returned to his first love, drawing.
Jaimon is inspired by beauty, finding it in a variety of subjects from ballet to historic cities and nature. Any subject can translate visually with colored pencils, and he loves challenging himself with each new series to push the boundaries of what is possible with this medium.
Currently he live in downtown Raleigh, NC, with his husband and two dogs. You can see his work in person at his studio in Artspace (studio 214).
