The Artist
Jake is an only child, and his mother is the youngest in a large family. Jake had art all around him growing up, his mother is a painter, and his uncles are all woodworkers, silversmiths, bead workers, and experts of various crafts. While he didn't get into art until later in high school, he chose to pursue it in college, earning a BFA in Art Education from The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and a Masters in Education from Northeastern University in Boston, MA.
The Murals
My mural work, characterized by its enormity, vibrant hues, and a commitment to fostering unity among visitors, stands as a testament to my dedication to creating impactful art. Prior to embarking on each mural project, I undertake comprehensive research and engage in open communication with the communities in which I paint. This collaborative approach ensures the accuracy and effectiveness of my work, making it a reflection of the unique narratives and experiences of the locales it graces.
