I’m Jason Oliva, a painter. I’ve lived and worked as a full-time painter in New York for over 25 years, and today I paint from my home studio in NYC / East Hampton.
My work concentrates on the singular: an animal, a flower, a building, an object, with the noise of a detailed background removed. I like to leave room for the viewer.
This site collects my paintings, hand-painted limited edition works on paper (each one individually painted, numbered and signed on Arches paper), sculpture, silver and gold jewelry, and Jason Oliva Wine, the private-label collaboration with South African winemaker Dirk Roos that I founded in 2010. Our current release is Lion 2020.
In 2015, astronaut Scott Kelly and cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko brought my astronaut t-shirt aboard the International Space Station, and Ralph Lauren chose eight of my images for Ralph Lauren Kids stores around the world.
You can find my works on paper, jewelry, pins, shirts and coloring book in my Etsy shop, and the wine at jasonolivawine.com. To get in touch, email jasonoliva@gmail.com.
Cheers, Jason
