YabYum Seven: Jason Hugger

1. Who are you and what do you do? 

My name is Jason Hugger and I am a surreal still-life painter. I work in oil and acrylic on canvas and panels as well as silver point drawing.

2. How did you get your start?  

I started drawing in perspective in my teens. After high school I received several scholarships to attend the Columbus College of Art and Design in Ohio. In 1995 I graduated Cum Laude with a BFA in Fine Art.

3. What inspires you?

Some of the things that inspire me are; the work of the surrealist artists, the deserts of the Middle East and Southwest U.S. Modern and ancient architecture, and any objects that are battered, weathered, rusty, or mysteriously un-identifiable.

4. What do you like about AZ? 

I love the weather, the job market, and the wonderful and diverse community of artists located here.

5. Where can we see you(r) work? 

"Watcher of the Skies Pt. 2"

“Watcher of the Skies Pt. 2”

My work can be seen here and I have shown at {9} The Gallery, R. Pela Contemporary Art and Monorchid.

6. What would you like to accomplish before you die? 

I would like to leave a legacy with my art during my life time and after I am gone.

7. What is your mantra? 

Paint on.
