Jason Maranto Email & Phone Number

I began working as a professional artist in 1997. I started out working in comics, first as an inker, then branching out to do lettering, coloring, cover illustration, logo design, penciling, painting and art direction. Eventually, I moved on to fine art painting in Egg Tempera, Watercolor and Oils as well. I also owned an art gallery for 5 years, during which time I hosted 27 art shows featuring local artists.I enjoy learning and teaching almost as much as creating artwork, and to that end I have been creating professional video tutorial series since 2010. To date I have released 16 full-length (8+ hour) tutorial series through VTC, 2 full-length series independently, as well as many shorter ones through freelancing (directly for the companies that make the softwares). During the course of doing this work I have become particularly known for my teaching on how to make and tweak brushes -- as well as the many brushes I have made available to users as part of releasing these series, or directly for the software companies.I currently work on my own personal fine art paintings and occasionally release 3D content as a PA for DAZ3D. I am also writing a web novel called Stampede! Legend of a Magical Space Cowboy.

Listed skills include Egg Tempera, Watercolor, Drawing, Rebelle, and 9 others.
