For more than two decades, Jhon Ochoa has navigated the shifting intersections of painting, photography, and digital art, crafting a visual language that transcends medium and geography. His work unfolds as a conversation between light ,memory and roots from Colombia— each image a fragment of narrative, each composition a meditation on belonging, identity, and the passage of time.
A graduate of the University of the District of Columbia with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art and Photography, Ochoa has exhibited extensively across the United States, with works featured in shows that reveal his range and depth as a storyteller. His vision has also reached international audiences through a joint exhibition in Rome, Italy, marking a significant milestone in his expanding global presence.
Ochoa’s paintings and photographs have been recognized with multiple distinctions, including awards for best Painting and best Photography in juried exhibitions — honors that reflect both the technical precision and emotional resonance of his practice. Beyond the studio, his experience as a creative consultant for globally recognized brands has refined his instinct for visual communication, merging fine-art sensibility with conceptual clarity.
Rooted in twenty years of artistic exploration, Jhon Ochoa’s work stands as a testament to storytelling through image — a poetic synthesis of tradition and innovation, where every detail breathes with humanity and light.
“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.”
—Leonardo da Vinci
