A native of Charlotte, NC, Jax is a graduate of the University of North Carolina – Charlotte with a B.S. in Social Work. His artistic journey began as he sought a creative way to channel the emotions he had carried with him since early childhood. Through transforming these sentiments into large-scale works of art, Jax found his way out of societal restraint and isolation, embracing authenticity and freedom through the exchange of colors on canvas.
As a self-taught artist, Jax’s work is often non-representational, abstract, and two-dimensional. The use of geometric forms throughout his compositions communicates the complexity of the mind, which consist of a fair exchange of ideas, thoughts, and perceptions to be taken in by its viewer.
To think of doing something is one thing, but taking the steps towards that vision is entirely different. Art is not just something to do for Jax; it has now become his journey towards truth. Art saved Jax from a prison of question and doubt. It has forever changed how he views the world and enables him to be a conduit of change and inspiration for others. Through art, Jax has found his purpose and identity and gained a deeper appreciation for life. Each Jax Abstracts original is yet another stepping stone on the path of Jax’s journey towards creative liberty. Will you join him?
