About me: Abstract Surrealist Artist Jason Jenkins LIVE! Large scale dark originals dominate the portfolio. Subjects range from political themes to deep thought surrealism. Jason is influenced by the great 1950's abstract expressionists with a dash of urban style taken from Basquiat. Jason Jenkins is a "Live" painter, creating his art in the public arena. His abstract surreal style is designed to bring work that dominates a room with unlimited designs and oversized pieces. Jason Jenkins is Abstract Surrealism in the contemporary urban format.

What other artists have influenced your work.?
"I have recently discovered a folk artist from Florida, by the name of Purvis Young who has made an immediate impact on my work. Some of my all time favorites include Basquiat, Munch, Degas, Van Gogh, Picasso and De Kooning." Just to name a few.
What music do you listen to while you are painting?
"Parliment Funkadelic, lots of 70's disco, Sade, Steel Pulse. Also ALOT of Russian POP, after a trip to Ukraine in 2004. Artist include Reflex, Glukoza Nostra, and Jasmine."
Do you only create one type of art?
Although, I specialize in large scale abstracts, my portfolio follows many catagories of art: Realism, Landscape, Surrealism, Pop art, Abstraction, and Mixed Media.
What is your ultimate goal?
TO HAVE MY WORK BECOME PART OF THE PERMANENT COLLECTION AT THE LOUVRE.
ok, yeah, i remember that conversation. so yeah, i was looking threw my emails and it looks like yahoo is once again hosting our domain name. at it was paid automatically as of Febuary this year. so i will go threw them and set up our website or at least get the .com back up and running. So you would like to paint durring one of our shows? ok, i did not think you were into that kind of stuff. but word, we can connect on that. we have a big show on Dec 18th but that show is booked already. maybe you can come out and do something for our next big event in April of next year? it's called Freestyle Fest and last year there was an artist doing live painting as well. so thats whats up! lets plan on that.
i know we saved the emails you sent us that has the artwork and stuff like that but i don't think the domain name account info was on it. i know originally i bought that domain name with yahoo.com but once we had you do our website, you switched the name to another host right? i will double check and see what we already have. i will let you know if we still can't find it. Thank you.
yo Jason, what up brotha? can you give me a call when you get a chance? we are trying to set up our website again and we need to know what hosting company has our domain name right now? we also need whatever info we will need to get it all switched into our name and our contact info again. halla!
