Joseph “JayD” Green

b. 1993, San Francisco CE artist since 2012

Joseph “JayD” Green's work demonstrates an eye for detail combined with a penchant for quick handwork. His process involves creating preliminary sketches from source imagery found online or from his imagination. His chosen disciplines are printmaking, drawing, painting, and ceramics. For Green, art-making is an opportunity to relax, explore his own imagination, and engage others in conversation about what he is creating.

Green co-curated Shoerageous in 2014 and CB2 selected his artwork to adorn a pillow in 2015. Then in 2019, Green’s powerful work about race was featured in Fragments & Resistance at the CE gallery.

Green participated in CE's first paid internship program for artists in 2019, where he helped facilitate the Imaginate Saturdays program and hosted art-making workshops at LinkedIn as part of the InCommon community engagement space. Green leads the CE artist Dance Party during the studio closure, keeping the CE community connected virtually.

Learn more about Green in this video, which debuted at Art Changes Lives 2017.
