Jason started drawing at a young age. It was discovered by his teachers and peers that he possessed a knack and desire for artwork, a desire he pursued until his senior year when he switched to playing the electric bass. About ten years later, Jason realized how much he had missed nature and artwork and began to sketch again. he painstakingly worked his way from pencil to watercolor using nature and wildlife as a subject matter. a love for wildlife and landscape came natural being that he was born and raised in Minnesota. Jason went onto college and earned his degree in Applied Visual Arts and was encouraged by his teacher Bara Arens to pursue a career in fine art.

One of the things Jason enjoys most about his art is painting from life and going out into nature and gathering experiences that will later be brushed onto canvas. Jason has a deep passion for the north woods and prairies. Some of his favorite memories are camping trips up in northern Minnesota. These trips have turned into beautiful paintings that express his passion for the north. Jason also has a love for simpler times that are long since gone; old barns, family life of the prairie and pioneer days, still life paintings with hand-sewn bunnies and flowers and other subjects express this longing for the past.
