About

Jason is a seasoned Artist and Craftsman with qualifications in Art & Design, Animation and workplace based Teaching . He has also had training in Community leadership, Mental health awareness and Carpentry 

Born in Hay-on -Wye, his creative journey started at a young age by writing, performing and recording in bands . Music led him into community arts and after three years working in a local stained glass studio, he entered the entertainment industry as a sculptor /prop maker. Jason travelled in this role for 8 years before settling up a studio in Cardiff.  He concluded this line of work after 14 years with a 3 year stint in Bridgend making miniature sets and models for a local stop motion animation. For the last 5 years Jason has been sharing his skills in educational, health and wellbeing workshops.

‘I feel that I have been blessed not only to have worked with and for some of the most talented Artists, Artisans and Craftspersons but also to have been fortunate enough to have been able to share what I have learned. Early in my career I realised that the real magic lies in the way we treat and work with each other’.

Time spent as a student working in the service industry also  provided me with some of the valuable soft skills that now serve me well in my community and classroom interactions.
