New Piece
"EAGLE"
Italian Alabaster on Marble
Jess Davila's Original Stone Sculptures is pure Contemporary Art. His original art spands from Miniature to Monumental, and is a delight to the eye and the mind, created in sandstone, alabaster, marble, or limestone.
JESS DAVILA spent his formative years in the beautiful State of Sonora, Mexico. He grew up exploring and appreciating the unspoiled beauty of the desert and mountainous regions of his homeland.
Davila focuses on exploring a unique contemporary style. A completely self-taught artist, Davila draws on his experiences with various mediums which allow him to express and develop the many facets of his artistic talent and to further develop his creative being.
Inspired by the shape, color and texture of various stone mediums, Davila creates a natural interpretation of what is already in his artist's eye. He draws from personal experience and the beauty that he sees in all of his surroundings to create impressive works in marble, alabaster, sandstone and limestone.
Davila's unique stone interpretations evoke strong emotions from all who have the privilege of viewing them. The artist's profound appreciation of beauty is apparent in every aspect of his pieces, from the natural patterns in a piece of stone to the flowing curves of a finished sculpture.
Davila along with several of his colleagues are currently involved in building an art & cultural center in Huachinera, Sonora, Mexico. This project will take several years before it is completed but will allow Jess to give back to his community that has provided him with so much artistic inspiration. His purpose for the center is to inspire the people of this region to find in themselves hidden artistic talents and for them to experience the joy that creating art brings to its creator. The Centro Artistico y Cultural de Huachinera is a way of bringing the townspeople together to study and learn various artistic methods. Ultimately, the skills taught at the center will bring jobs to the people of Huachinera. People of all ages have already begun taking classes on various subjects and are eager to continue learning. Jess has affected many people's lives and is making a difference for their future.
