Jaz Davis is an Airbrush Illustrator,  Muralist, & Designer with 20 years of professional work experience.   His artwork can literally be found from coast to coast through life size murals on freight trucks, commissioned works on canvas, clothing, and personal items,  and custom feature designs created for the water park and film industry.  He began his career in 2001 in the NYC art district of Canal Street and worked his way west apprenticing for established industry pros and learning the tricks of the trade. Currently he is specializing in the discipline of digital sculpting and focusing on the artistic enrichment of the surrounding community. He takes every opportunity to pass on this valuable knowledge to young people and hoping to one day kill the stigma that art “isn’t a real job”.

Jaz spent several years traveling the US  living and creating art in places like Shreveport, NYC, Honolulu Hawaii and Oakland California.  He currently reside in the Kyle, TX. www.JazDavis.com
