Downtown Edmonton
The Friends of Royal Alberta Museum Society (FRAMS) and Feed the Soul YEG are excited to feature artist Jamelle Davis (JD) for a spin on our next Dining with Authors event, which we’re calling Dining with Artists. Born from a love affair with creativity, JDs journey as an artist transcends mere expression—it embodies a philosophy of life. Each piece he crafts is a testament to his devotion to originality, a quest to distill unique thoughts into tangible forms. JDs canvas becomes a playground where pop-art meets realism, where the boundaries of mediums blur in pursuit of innovation.
