Bio: |
Jimmy is a southern folk artist and art car owner working exclusively with recycled materials, most especially bottlecaps. He began creating furniture in 1998, after being diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease. Since then his creations have evolved to include "The Bottlecap Truck" as well as other forms of art. He is recognizable in the northeast Georgia area as the "bottlecap truck guy," and has taken "cap man" as his folk artist name. His work has been carried in several northeast Georgia galleries since 1999, and he has been personally participating in folk art shows since 2004. His goal is to use his art to bring a smile to everyone he meets.
