Jae Jae Jou paints the harbor and canal scenes in Venice.  He paints panoramic views including the sky, sea and everything that lies between.  In Jou's paintings, the vast colors of the sky are well reflected in the open expanse of water and set a hazy but luminous atmosphere to the composition.  The gondolas are an important signature motif in his paintings and provide an idled sense of leisure.  Jou displays many details in all aspects of his work and the view is tied in harmony.

Hee Jae Jou was born in In-chon, Korea in 1951.  He was educated in Korea and also studied in Academies Grande Chaumiere in France.  He has been very productive showing his art works and receiving many awards both in France and Korea.  He currently lives and works in Seoul, Korea.
