Hi there, I’m Jason! Let me know when we can have our first tutoring session!

As an art educator, I have supported my students and helped them achieve a range of accomplishments! Whether your goal is to simply improve your skills within the span of an hour lesson or learn skills to gain successful admission into your dream school, I am here to help! We can work together toward preparing you for a successful audition or portfolio critique no matter your school level (from magnet middle schools to graduate schools). I've helped artists get their first freelance art gigs, and I've helped students win contests and scholarships.

I will help you to develop a more competitive body of artwork! I will also help you hone your presentation skills, answer your industry specific questions, and help you understand how to deal with the mental challenges that may come along with honing your craft.

I’m an energetic and enthusiastic visual development artist with a passion for imaginative storytelling and years of experience. After graduating from Pratt Institute I went on to work in the field of design which led me to my current work in the entertainment industry and concept design. My goal is to entertain, innovate and tell meaningful stories as an artist within the film and television animation industry, creating characters, props, and environment designs. I am also passionate about graphic design and traditional figurative and landscape painting.

My specialty is traditional and digital drawing, painting, and illustration. In our lessons, I will help you to improve your skills by doing draw-overs. This method involves sending me a screenshot of your work so that I can draw on top of it and make suggestions to demonstrate areas we will work on improving together!

I am so excited to lend a hand and support you through the process of discovering the next steps in your creative journey no matter what stage you are currently at! I look forward to us meeting in our first session together!

Patient and Understanding Tutor!

Jason introduced me to some of the very useful tools of Procreate, as well as the basics to creating invoking landscape paintings on my new iPad! There were many things that I was completely oblivious to, and I was very much feeling uncertain about my progress, but he reminded me that it was all a part of the process! A lighthearted and fun session. Thank you!
