About

A simple artist searching for Satori.

Hello Traveler, Thank you for stopping by! My name is Jay(son) and am a 3D Artist with a specialization in both environment & hard-surface modeling for real-time 3D engines.

Located in the Pacific Northwest with nearly 20 years of professional experience in industries such as the AAA game industry, mobile/indie games, tech, animation, graphic/web design, and print media. With formal training leading to a B.A in New Media and a B.S in Game Art, along with a lifetime creative curiosity; it has allowed for mastery of many ever evolving skillsets on a technical and personal level to elevate my creative problem solving while exploring with my expressive medium of choice : real-time interactive art. 

Art for art's sake has always been an internal activity to me, and a way in which to learn more about myself and the world around me - as well as a general outlet for my emotions. It's always been both mystery & miracle to have had the opportunity to work at some of the highest levels/companies on a professional basis with some of the best artists of their crafts for as long as I have. I'll forever be grateful to those that have helped me in my journey along the way, you all know who you are🖤

While I don't ascribe to any particular ideaology, I've clocked several consistent themes throughout my life that both Dao & Zen practice & philosophies have impacted greatly as I struggle daily to follow the path of the sage. Balance, has become the overarching theme of my life and has become the subject I most often explore & connect with. Out of that, Jxyzen has become my moniker of choice. Closely resembling my actual name, it is a reminder for me to be open to the possibility of my own sudden awakening (satori) while exploring in xyz (3D).
