Visual Artist

Jay is an artist based in Dallas, Texas. He started drawing cartoon characters when he was young and his parents quickly realized his talent and ability for art. He received his Associates in Arts from North Lake College where he took several art classes, including life drawing, painting, photography and later went on to study animation from the Art Institute and eventually earning his MBA from Saint Edward’s University. He currently works in the tech industry as a software designer and also as a part time portrait photographer but still continues to draw and paint in his spare time. Drawing always puts his mind at ease and brings a sense of calmness to his busy life. Although Jay has many ventures outside of art, he is a true artist at heart. He enjoys being involved in any creative project ranging from directing and acting as well as script writing for comedy videos. His passion for art will never fade because it is a true reflection of who he is as a person. Every time he sits down to draw, he finds himself reflecting back on his younger days when he first started drawing and discovered his talent and joy for art.
