Vickie Jones Bell – The Soulful Artist


By Surinder Moore

Vickie Jones Bell began her art career exploring South Western style abstract painting techniques.  She graduated with a degree in Art Education from the University of Maryland and since then Vickie has incorporated a more spiritual and soulful theme into her art.

Inspired by the kindred spirit that women share, Vickie began to infuse her paintings with various depictions of African-American culture.  A profound sense of sisterhood and bonding comes through in Vickie’s paintings, and the richness of African American culture is expressed throughout her art by using bold colors, ethnic imagery and intricate patterns.  Vickie uses taping, stenciling, and splattering methods to achieve the multi-layer effect in her artwork and using Acrylic paints allows her to expand the applications.
