- Jean Banas is a 92-year-old abstract expressionist and a major surprise to many critics and collectors who make the ageist and sexist assumption that her dynamic and energetic paintings were created by a much younger man.

She and her work are wonderful. Her work is on par with the other great abstract expressionists. So deserving of recognition!
What an inspiration.
Keep creating.
One of the aspects of your abstract paintings which is so appealing and soothing to me is how you have large areas for the eyes to rest. This is the mark of a successful abstract in my opinion. Plenty of action with places for the eyes to take a break.
I am no where near your age Jean, but oftentimes get despondent when I see submissions requesting only people up to 35! At that age my art was nowhere as good as it is now. I feel one matures artistically with the years - like an old cheese. I will try to remember you when I feel bad about my age. You art is fantastic. So strong and vibrant. May I say happy? Even the dark ones. Go well. M
Absolutely powerful art! Georgeous!!!
Good for her! Go Jean, GO! Your paintings ROCK! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Wow! Your art is fabulous…so bold and powerful! And YOU…such an inspiration. I’m 83 and feel energized seeing this video and hearing your story. You motivate me to keep at it. Wishing you many more years of painting enjoyment!
What an inspiration! I hope to be one of those grey-haired old ladies of Gloria Steinem's quote who take over the world. But first let's inspire it with our art, like Jean! This is so expressive and full of life!
Jean's work is incredible, I love it. It is also inspiring to know one can keep on painting to such an age! Thank you!
❤❤❤ Thank you for sharing your art with us. You have inspired me, thank you again.
I love her work and her so much!! 👏👏❤
Thank you for your video. You are a beautifully talented artist.
Beautiful work. Thank you, Jean!!
She is surely an inspiration for every artist.
A really great article about a wonderful artist!
She is absolutely incredible I love this work she is my artistic soul person ❤
Theyre fantastic, good job!! 💖💖💖
WOW, Jean, WOW. I really understand that we artists do keep evolving with our work with each passing day. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and incredible artistic outputs. Raymond is also amazing with making your frames!!! 😊
92? My gawd, you inspire me. I am an artist who chose to have a family, raising kids and making art professionally limits you but no regrets. Now I am almost 60 and wondering if its just to late to finally go for it and just do what I have been called to do my whole life. I think you may have answered that question for me. Thank you Jean.
You can do it! Monet said he really started to get going in his 60's, using all the knowledge and observations he had accumulated over time.
Please do it!!! It is so scary at first, you have so many experiences, love, and feelings - let it out on the canvas! Don’t be afraid.
I'm 70, and starting over after a house fire destroyed my entire portfolio of 65 years' artwork last summer.
Please take a leap of faith in yourself...
Time is Art🎨💫
My story exactly.
Same here. What an inspiration this beautiful lady has been for so many of us. So happy to have decided to click on this video.❤
I love your paintings, they are really strong. I hope to be as blessed as you when I'm your age.
God bless you and your husband- so inspiring! 🥰
wow, I love her "Precious (film)" painting, which talks to my soul. she's amazing! Also only 5 minutes she takes to get her focus back from a distraction! when I take 1 day sometimes,....
Fantastic artwork.
Brilliant.
Great stuff
What a fulfilling life you have! Wonderful!
Inspiring! Brilliant work.
beautiful and powerful!
.. God bless your soul...
Excellent work!
Gorgeous paintings and so inspriring!!!! Thank you Jean Banas for your lovely work and sharing your studio with us :) As an abstract expressioinist WOMAN painter, it is ridiculous to think that ART is only a man's domain (still). Classic infuriating sexism. Thank you for being you JEAN and doing your dymanic paintings. You deserve all the attention! Xo
Wonderful! Inspiring and profound.
Very inspiring on many levels. And very dynamic paintings.
Amazing paintings.
Such an inspiration. I hope people who haven’t will study more about abstract art and keep viewing it. Jean is one reason why.
Jean’s work is very good. Fabulous 🎉
Dear Jean, it feels like yesterday…I miss you so much! What a great honnor and you deserve every bit and moment of it!
Being creative can be frustrating process. Awesome attitude , love it
A BEAUTIFUL couple!❤

It's so great. ❤💛
❤🧡💛💚💙You are an inspiration!
Lovely couple ❤beautiful and strong paintings❤❤
amazing! very inspiring!
love this!
I like her work. I use acrylic so easy to paint abstract but oil is hard because it does not dry fast. I understand her and I too tackle with my paintings. Glad she has a friend husband.
Oh my god.. 💛✅
Am I jealous or what! You go girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You have my admiration.
I wish I had a painting to live with...or two, or three...
💞
Good for you.
she is fantastic.
good to see marxist art coming from a 92 year old. warms the heart.
very Miriam Cahn, regarding subject matter
Wharever floats your boat.
Why would anyone make such a stupid ignorant comment about this work!! > "a young man" really wtf is wrong with people.
De Kooning once said that there was a lot of creativity in the act destruction.
What’s the point of?
Shes 92? She doesnt look a day over 65
Sono io con la cagarella
Sorry i don't call it art,maybe it's just me.
My God, how absolutely absurd! She needs a visit to the Rijks to see what the real deal is.
I am an artist almost her age, but I believe that art should be a positive gift to others. It , definitely should not be about the artist
and their pity party. That is the false ego speaking.
Art is the spiritual emotion that comes from realms unknown. It is the poetry from “the Cloud of Unknowing,”
Abstraction is nothing but a chaotic grievance that happens to be in paint.
Watch that type paint.. they go from table to canvas just doing anything.. inanity
My sentiments exactly!
I think that is lie, 5he teeth tells your age, she is not 92!
Maybe her teeth are capped as mine are...or dentures perhaps or maybe she has good genes.
Why on earth would she lie??
