On July 25th 2019 Jason will deliver a talk about how an interest in the occult led to the genesis of his original underground publication 'Satanic Mojo Comix' at Treadwell's occult bookshop in London.

In the talk he will be touching on the history of underground comix and how they have influenced and been influenced by the likes of The Process Church of the Final Judgement, the Children of God, the Mason Family, Jonestown Massacre, Chick Tracts, Source Family, AUM Shinrikyo, Compendium Maleficarum, Tijuana Bibles, Weird Tales and more...

Since 2016 I have been hosting life drawing events with model led group Art Model Collective.
See link, below, for latest dates:

The Resistance Gallery has been a big supporter of my work & group show projects for several years now. In 2009 ResGal founder Garry Vanderhorne & I co-curated The Iconography Of Mask exhibition & 3 day festival, see video here , They also provided a home for my Jack Kirby tribute show “Hail To The King” & “SuperSatanicSaturdays” performance events.
ResGal are the one of London’s top underground indie arts venues as well as playing host to Lucha Britannia & a wide array of art events, club nights and experimental theatrical performance.

In the early hours of Aug 15th vandals set fire to the recycling bin outside the gallery, the flames quickly spread inside the building destroying the stage & dressing room areas, the electrics, soundproofing and plastic ceiling cladding.

To cut a long story short, they currently need to raise £15,000 to pay for repairs and refurbishments and have started a crowd funding campaign here: Resistance Rising

I am offering one of the fund raiser ‘perks’ and for £200 will sketch and paint your portrait on canvas. Don’t worry if you can’t come to London to sit for me in person as I will also be offering a Skype portrait sitting option.

Resistance Rising!

Follow the link for the crowd funding site for my new art project satanic Mojo

Launching Dec 6th my new mixed media, indiegogo project "Satanic Mojo" debuts.

The first stage of this project is an anthology comic and black light poster which form part of a metafictional collection of facsimile ephemera from the mythical Satanic Mojo Studio.

Tokyo fashion house Milkboy recently asked me to come up with a new t-shirt design with words and some kind of simple image.

The name Milkboy put me in mind of A Clockwork Orange, the droogs supping their Molokoplus in the Korova Milk Bar.
I wrote a little story about how it feels to buy and wear Milkboy trousers in Nadsat & came up with a simple accompanying illustration.

Molokomalchick is Milkboy directly translated into Nadsat.

I set a World land-speed record for portraiture at The National Portrait Gallery London on the evening of June 20th.

Surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd, cheering and taking picture I sketched 42 full length portrait sketches in marker pen on paper during the hour set for the task.
The event was open to the general public and my subjects included, children, oldies, punk rockers, a pirate, a transexual and a female body builder in a bikini.

I was shot by photographer Christopher Sims and filmed by Alex Snelling, both of whom I also sketched.

The event formed part of the opening party for the BP portrait awards 2008.
Sadly Guinness declined to recognise my achievement as they are unable to define what exactly is a portrait. The NPG however support my claim and I'm sure would welcome any challengers to come forward & attempt to beat my record.

Personally that for the purpose of this exercise it would be possible to set criteria for judging wether a particular drawing qualifies as a portrait. The model being happy with the likeness I feel should be one qualification for example.

Babylon Academy @ Kunsthaus Tacheles, Mitte Berlin.
private view: June 12th
