Artist Bio

Since 1995 Jason's paintings have garnered increasing popularity, critical acclaim, TV appearances (eg; Seinfeld) and a surge in demand.

A graduate of Ontario College of Art and Design in Toronto, Jason worked in advertising and taught painting and design at Centennial College, before devoting himself full-time in 1993 as an independent visual artist.

Jason's artistic style has been compared to the work of the Impressionist and Fauvist painters. His recent work with its intense colours, strong patterns and skewed perspectives references the work of Matisse. In Jason's compositions the flat surface of the canvas becomes a multi-layered tableau and although the scenes depicted border on the surreal, he is able to maintain a sense of connection between the work and the observer.

He has participated in numerous solos and group exhibitions in Canada and the United States. His paintings are found in such notable private collections as the Royal Bank of Canada, Canadian Imperial Bank of Canada, Motorola of Dallas, Power Stream, Ontario Hydro, and IBM, Atlanta. Among his most satisfying achievements is a 35 foot painting on a Mediacom billboard that toured across Canada to support Covenant House (1995-1997) commissioned and funded by Nike Canada.

Jason's signature pieces capture the physical and emotional spirit of an imaginary world and invoke the imagination that takes you on a journey through a vibrant modern landscape. They delight the eye and appeal to anyone with an appreciation for highly energized representational art.

Prestigious corporations, charitable organizations and many individuals have sought Jason's paintings for the exhilaration and thought provoking dynamics created from the shear energy depicted on canvas. Jason currently is selling his paintings in private galleries and art organizations throughout North America.
