Artist on View
JD Wise was born in Miami, Florida and grew up during the “glory years” of South Florida, where you could feel the warm ocean breeze against your face while adventuring through a backdrop of Art Deco and Spanish architecture unlike any other.
While still in high school and college, JD had a well-rounded education in the arts. As a senior in high school, he was responsible for conceiving the set designs for the school musicals. He also created an art piece that won the prestigious Scholastic Art Award for the state of Florida and then went on to compete in New York City.

In college, JD continued his arts education by majoring in trumpet where he received his BMEd. During those years, He also played his horn professionally with Miami Brass Salsa Band and the Abilene Philharmonic Orchestra. His love for art, music and set design is what got him here today. He is a visionary and has always seen the arts as working together rather than independently.
1984, Wise developed and created The Beginners Bible© that became a number one best-selling book that developed into a brand of products, including more books, music, videos and products that are still best-sellers today.
Since 2013, JD began to paint his unique art style and is receiving positive revues for his work. JD Wise’s art has been featured in a number of publications, including Nashville Arts Magazine as well as Art Galleries and Artists of the South.
Since then, JD has painted hundreds of paintings using the medium of acrylic on canvas. His art can be seen in many prestigious homes and businesses throughout the country.
