JL Galleries – Original Fine Art

Meeting Chong Amo

I first met Chong Amo in July of 2007 while having dinner at a local
rib joint ‘Naughty Nuri’s’ where I was having dinner with Neal Adams
and his wife Ayu.  At the time he was painting with a local carving
and painting factory.  Shortly after he began working for and with
Neal Adams.  It was at this point that our relationship developed
having regular lunch at Neal’s studio.  One day I saw him painting a
beautiful piece and informed him that I was unaware of his talents.
He smiled and over the following months produced a number of works
that made there way into JL Galleries.  He made his premier with JL
Galleries during the 2008 An Evening of Art where he sold out of a
series of still life paintings and made an impact with some of his
plain air work as well.  Since then Chong has continued to develop and
mature as an artist.  JL Galleries is excited to watch him as  he
continues to grow and flourish as he breaks new ground in the markets
of America.
