Jason Maloney

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jason Maloney (artist) was born in Knoxville, Tennesse in 1974. Raised in Southern California, his childhood was heavily influenced by 80’s skateboard graphics, classic slasher movies and heavy metal music. Maloney obsessively spent hours listening to Iron Maiden and recreating Derek Riggs’ album covers. Later he enrolled in California State University, Fullerton where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting and Drawing in 2000.

Jason Maloney exhibits his highly rendered oil paintings, watercolors and pencil drawings on the most revered walls devoted to lowbrow art; Corey Helford Gallery, Billy Shire Fine Arts in Culver City, California and La Luz de Jesus in Los Angeles. His work has been featured in the pages of Juxtapoz Art & Culture Magazine, International Tattoo Art Magazine, Riveria, 944 Magazine, ISM Quarterly, Artweek, and O.C. Weekly. Surf and skate companies Quicksilver, Hurley and Grind King have commissioned Maloney’s painted satire for t-shirts, board shorts, skate trucks and public murals.
