Jack Dant — Paintings Photographed by Mitch Rossow
Jack Dant is a St. Paul painter and sculptor whose subjects range from landscape and still life to portrait and figure. Drawn primarily to realism in the tradition of the American Impressionists, he paints both plein air and in his studio. He studied Flemish still life and portraiture with Jeff Hurinenko and spent years on landscape painting with Joe Paquet, working in direct painting methods and the prismatic palette. Jack also teaches studio and plein air techniques to adults and teens.
Beyond painting, Jack has built a home bronze casting studio where he completes every stage of the sculpting and casting process himself — an engineering sensibility that carries through to how precisely he approaches the painted work.
Jack’s range — landscapes, still lifes, portraits, bronze — makes for one of the more varied portfolios this studio has photographed. Schedule your own session →
