New Paintings

Hello Everyone,

Here are two new paintings available. Soft & Silent is based on a previous study that is already sold. It takes the viewer into a quiet, winter landscape right after a freshly fallen snow. The eye moves down the stream over elegant detail expressed with a sophisticated variety of textures created with both brush strokes and palette knife.

Evening Winter Patterns is a small plein air painting that can be hung almost anywhere in your home. It shows a barn in evening light with melting snow creating interesting diagonal patterns which are echoed in the shape of the barn roof. Be sure to add either painting to your collection.

Door County Plein Air begins next week. Come and watch me paint live at this prestigious event. And don't forget to visit Highlands Art Gallery in Lambertville, NJ to see some of my latest work. Also, see more of my work at www.JasonTako.com

Door County Plein Air

Hello Everyone!

Door County Plein Air is just around the corner. This is the first time I've been invited to this prestigious event, and I'm looking forward to painting in my native Midwest. They call Door County the "Cape Cod of the Midwest." If you are close to this area come and watch me paint starting July 20 and enjoy a nice vacation in a beautiful area. Along with watching the nation's top plein air artists at work, there will be lectures on art, food, music, and the Collector's Preview Party. On Saturday, July 26th there will be a Dockside Quick Draw. For more information go to www.doorcountypleinair.com/home.html. I hope to see you there.

Below are a couple beautiful paintings that are available. I will also be announcing a New Gallery in a week! Thanks and I'll talk to you soon.
