James Caprell

James Caprell

James Caprell is an abstract artist whose style is best described as action painting. Caprell's paintings are created using a variety of techniques, then arranged by series. However, the unifying characteristics of his work are the intense combinations of color and kinetic composition within each painting intended to stimulate an emotional response for the viewer.

Born in 1976 in San Jose, California, Caprell is a first generation Armenian American. After graduating from DePauw University, he moved to New York for a job in investment banking at JP Morgan & Co. After a few years on Wall Street, Caprell left to pursue the arts full time. He remained in New York for ten years where he exhibited privately from his Harlem and Manhattan studios and also from galleries in Miami and Atlanta before he moved back to California in 2007 to open his own gallery. In December of 2007, the James Caprell Gallery opened at 1136 Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice, California.
