Jack Coulter (born 1994) is an Irish abstract expressionist painter and photographer.

Life and work

Coulter's work expresses intense emotion. He grew up surrounded by abstract art and from an early age became influenced by the Abstract Expressionist artists of the 1940s and his aunt Christine, who was an abstract printmaker.[1]

In 2015, he provided the artwork for singer-songwriter SOAK's debut album Before We Forgot How to Dream, which was nominated for the 2015 Mercury Music Prize.[2] The CD booklet and vinyl sleeve consists of three of Coulter's photographs and two of his paintings.[3][4]

Coulter produced a limited-edition print exclusively for the 2015 GQ Men of The Year Awards. The print was included in a gift bag worth more than £3000 which was received by winners and presenters of the awards including Samuel L. Jackson, Keith Richards and Sam Smith.[5][6]
