Jean Claude Kabongo is a painter who was born and lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
From his youth, he was interested in outdoor painting, with which he tried to capture the luminosity of the Pennsylvanian and the Californian landscape, just as the French Impressionists did. Among his favorite subjects, highlights his dedication to the Californian landscape, with a coastal environment, always with a human presence, which he captures with an absolute protagonism of light.
Kabongo shows attitudes for handling brushes and the rendering of realistic images. He holds a Bachelor’s of Art Degree from The University of Arts.
Jean Claude Kabongo 's work surprises with its fruitfulness: almost three thousand paintings and more than twenty thousand drawings and notes. Although the impressionist aesthetic is observed in it, there is no doubt that the study of Goya influenced the design of his themes. In his Californian beach and fishing scenes he shows a thick stain technique that captures the light vibration of the Californian sky, in the unfolded sails, in the sands and, especially in the wet bodies of children.
