When our precious dog Lexi passed away we were devastated. We were looking for an artist to do a portrait. Jason’s portfolio popped up on my newsfeed. His work looked very impressive and to be honest I didn’t think I could afford him.
From first contact Jason was a pure gentleman. I cannot put into words how impressed I am with our portrait. His talent is amazing the detail is incredible. Portrait has pride of place in our home.
Thanks a million Jason

Jason is not only an extremely talented artist, he is also a jem of a man to deal with. I have the privilege of owning his wildlife art, but also the portrait of our daughter that captures a precious moment in time. I don’t often post reviews, but for Jason I am happy to make an exception.

I have been an admirer of Jason’s work and bought my first piece back in 2019 to celebrate a milestone in life. Since then I have expanded my collection and even commissioned a couple of pieces which were outstanding.
Jason is so talented in several mediums but also in the breath of subjects matter he captures with such amazing intensity. Whether it is his Animal and Equine Paintings, Portraits or Architecture they are an absolute joy and definitely enhance your life. I personally love his architectural work and can spend hours just enjoying his art.
As an artist he is an exceptional kind and modest man who takes time to listen to you when you are commissioning a special piece. I look forward to expanding my collection in the coming years.
