Jason Shawn Alexander Quotes

When I paint figures it's never the idea of painting the beauty of the figure, it is using the figure to get across how I feel.

If you walk by something that I've done and you like it then I don't think I did what I was supposed to do. It should hit, it should either make you feel uncomfortable, or it should make you feel great, as long as it makes you feel something.

I love the figure to get across what I feel.

I paint like an abstract painter everything is inside nothing is meant to be, I take tattoos off a people I take anything that's not necessarily going to be timeless. I want to get across what I feel and I just use the figure because I enjoy the figure.

The figure is just the most represented tool to get thoughts and feelings across.

I never want to paint anything just to make a pretty picture. The only reason I do this is because it's an outlet, it's emotional.

I don't like literal spaces, I don't like literal anything. I still like some kind of guess work but some pieces work and they just pop.
