Stephen Jaskulski, aka Jazz, is a self-taught painter from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Now based in Los Angeles California, his work and his life are from his stream of consciousness. By letting his natural process unfold, Jazz analyzes the inner workings of himself and the world around him while allowing the paintings to flow uninterrupted. His highest goal is finding a genuine connection with the viewer and to strike a chord deep in their soul, allowing them to find comfort or a feel a sense of familiarity. Jazz' mediums consist primarily of oil stick, oil paints, acrylics, and spray paint on canvas, wood, and paper.
