Born  in the fields of corn husks and cattle, Jake Jones, a private school graduate, spent his younger years with his eyes buried in graphic novels and his mind soaring through the clouds of imagination. 

​

After high school, Jake began attending the Design College at Iowa State University, focusing in illustration and painting. It wouldn't take long before Jake would develop his own personal style with his growing fascination of ink and the human form.

​

He studied abroad in Italy, Fall of 2015, through the Integrated Studio Arts Program at Iowa State. This led him to participate in multiple art exhibitions in Venice and Rome, even having the honor of creating an installation that was featured at the 56th Annual Venice Biennale. 

​

Jake is currently finishing his bachelors degree in Advertising while also working on a series based primarily using ink and watercolors, all while trying to keep those vivid inspirations from overflowing out of his head.
