This piece was inspired by the mural at the north gate at The Brookfield Zoo. This artist captured the likeness beautifully.

The Artist – Jackson is a highly skilled and talented artist who truly appreciates and learns from other artists, often researching and replicating their works, such as Disney animators. He also has a deep passion for music, as he is a singer and musician himself, he has drawn work inspired by NSYNC and Backstreet Boys.

“I make art from what inspires my eye and things I see out in the world.” Taking walks and traveling often inspires Jackson to create what he sees and recreates some of his most treasured and childhood memories. Jackson creates images of his favorite animated characters, animals, movies, assorted logos designs, and buildings

Jackson uses a multitude of mediums and techniques, from drawing and painting to repurposing recycled materials, such as taking cans, bottles, fry and pizza boxes, and transforming them into wonderful works of art. He also likes making miniatures out of repurposed objects and has recreated skyscrapers, houses, buildings, and bridges.
