Using chiefly native wood such as walnut and sassafras, Jason carves his orginal pieces with chisels and knives. He sands them by hand to perfection, finishing by hand-rubbing Tung-oil into the sculpture to enhance the beauty of the grain and to protect the wood. He then selects some pieces to become limited edition bronze reproductions.
His creations depicting the Native American way of life and their relationships with nature are awe-inspiring. Each carving tells a unique story, depicting the admiration and esteem of nature by his ancestors. Jason continually produces excellence in his work and maintains a deep respect for his heritage.
