About Jason Turner

My name is Jason Turner I’m a UK-based artist from Gloucestershire in Royal Forest Of Dean, UK. My previous work history includes 20 years in the oil and gas engineering industry where I gained extensive experience in a wide range of welding techniques including Tig, Mig, Flux, Aluminium and Super Duplex. With a hands - on approach regards to installation and good all round teamwork skills my work soon took me to Oxford, Wales, Devon, Swindon and in many instances i was playing a successfully supporting role for the MOD. In 2019 i started my own property and maintenance company then without warning bad health struck and changed everything. They say things happen for a reason - but now having the all clear, its time to start looking forward with a full heart. (2021) I am now about to embark on a passion that as been with me since a child - ART. I,M fascinated by the individual contribution and effect of visual elements such as colour, pattern and texture and the ways in which they are woven into design and structure to communicate and tell a story. MEDIUM I love to use Epoxy Resin and by incorporating my own technique and style its the perfect medium for creating optically clear resin art with a high gloss finish. It has been formulated to work seamlessly with Acrylics and other paints making the most of their high pigment load and vibrant colour. It offers excellent UV resistance as well was amazing clarity and transparency. Hardened resin won’t shrink or distort over time. These properties make Epoxy Resin particularly suitable for both protecting and decorating paintings, artwork, sculpture and more. HANDMADE CANVAS I build all my canvas from scratch with a 6mm low moisture resistant hard board top and 1 inch x 2.5 inch support frame. The luxury of this is I'm free to build any size canvas I wish to suit the customer. It all begins with an idea. I start with a blank canvas and my paint. I have an image in my head of what I want to show the world, but with each stroke, pore, or splatter the image changes and so does my thought process this is my creative project to share with the world. The way I tell my story through my paintings can make all the difference. It’s up to you to look at the painting and admire and see what you think it brings to you. With hard work and attention to detail I believe I offer an exceptional quality product at extremely competitive prices.
