About the Artist

Image
Jason Perry

I am Jason Perry the youngest of five children. I was raised by a single Mother in Compton California. Confused by my surroundings at a very young age, I realized I could use my art to escape from my reality. I wanted to express the things I had seen, the feelings that I felt so I began to write, to draw and paint and I never stopped. My art comes from a place of anguish and love. The anguish is from the brutality that I see inflicted on my people. But, the love is the beauty that I see in those very same people. This is the inspiration to continue my expressions.
