Jack DeLoney
American, born 1940
DeLoney received a B.F.A from Auburn University in 1964, and has been producing watercolor scenes as a full time artist since 1979. His home is in Ozark, Alabama, where he has the DeLoney Studio. Most frequently his subjects are the rural Alabama landscape and the day-to-day activities of country life, most particularly nostalgic scenes of cotton farming.
The subject of this painting, Ocee, was a shoeshine man at a local barbershop in Ozark. DeLoney and Ocee both enjoyed hunting in the countryside around Ozark, which they did together. DeLoney used Ocee as the model for several watercolors and this portrait was done from photographs made by the artist.
