ABOUT JON
Raised on the shores of Lake Michigan, Jon—a third-generation decorative painter—learned to draw and paint in his mother’s art classroom. A childhood of camping, hiking, snow skiing, and gardening with family helped develop Jon’s eye for the beauty of the four seasons, while strengthening his love for the outdoors and teaching him the value of family. His artistry is infused with permanence, preserving history through patience and meticulous detail.
Jon is an artist who works around the globe as a decorative painter, partnering with some of the most accomplished professionals in the craft. After seven years as the foreman at Grand Illusion Decorative Painting in New York, and five years of self-employment in Portland OR, Jon understands how to translate a client’s vision into stunning reality. His approach and success is not just a mastery of the tools and techniques; it’s also an understanding of how to construct a tangible connection with people and concepts. These principles form the basis of each one of Jon’s projects.
He has worked on projects worldwide, from Paris to Hong Kong, London to Tokyo, and all around the U.S. In addition to amassing an impressive clientele list that includes esteemed corporations, Hollywood celebrities, and 5-star hotels, Jon has also studied extensively under world-renowned painters and taught decorative painting classes.
