A Montana native, JERRY LOCATI was raised in a family of artists. His passion for drawing led him to
complete his Master's Degree in Architecture and he quickly applied his artistic ability to the business of
architecture. In 1989, he established Locati Architects in Bozeman, Montana, growing it into an interna-
tionally recognized firm. Ultimately, this experience fostered a unique artistic perspective that influences
his work today.
Returning to his drawing roots, Locati has put pencil to paper creating works that celebrate composi-
tion, shadow, and texture in a new form. His art focuses on figurative subjects and wildlife, creating
large-scale images to depict the inspiring proportion of each image. Utilizing gridded blocks to focus the
viewer's eye, he lets an intricate puzzle subtly unfold within the frame of each piece. Exploring different
techniques and genres, Jerry's work is continually expanding, ever evolving and growing in its depth and
complexity.
