jacob johanson honed his particular style while working overnight in gas stations where the bulk of his art supplies consisted of blank typing paper, ballpoint pens and sharpies. thus all the black and white. he has a love/hate relationship with light and texture (leather pants vs blue jeans being a lovely example of the sort of difference that drives him to claw at his eyes in the middle of the night). he has had one gallery show a few years ago that he doesn't claim anymore due to the factthat the gallery owner is a complete douchebag and doesn't deserve the extra press. you can reach him at crypticjake@gmail.com
