Jason was born in 1976 in Bangkok . He is fluent
in two languages and has a rich multi-cultural background. He studied
art and oil painting in the US , and also traveled for 8 years.
In 2002 Jason returned to Thailand to paint full-time and now resides
in Chiang Mai.
Jason's work exemplifies his mix background as well as his moderate and
minimalist philosophy. In abstract form, he combines deep tones
of Baroque art with the flowing lines and expressive brush marks
typical of Asian paintings. The effects are elegant patterns
of oils and solvents intertwining to create images of Thai quilts,
ancient scrolls or surfaces of weathered trees and rocks. Being
partly from Chiang Mai Jason draws much of his inspiration from nature
and the geography of northern Thailand . His work strongly emphasizes
the balance and partnership between man and nature, and conveys a sense
of absolute peace and calmness that he intends for himself and his
audience.
