Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Jason Jarava started showing interest in art at a very early age. Fortunate enough to have encouraging family and friends, he began to spend most of his time in the arts.

Location was also a big influence on the direction his art took. Luxuriant landscapes, tall trees, and reflective waters surround the area of Loch Raven where he spent much of his youth. After receiving a Bachelor of Fine Art degree from ASU, Jason traveled the world. He not only paints on canvas, but he also has been working to create works in other mediums.

Jason now works and lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his wife Stacy and three young children.
