Jax Jackson is a contemporary abstract artist based in Charlotte, NC. Jax experiments with many art forms but primarily focuses on canvas paintings. His canvas pieces are purely abstract and use geometric forms to symbolize his unique perspective on life. Jax dabbles in the art form he calls "Salvage Restoration" which he says is taking old, forgotten materials and using them within the creations of his art. This art form is somewhat like his mantra.
Jax is a University of North Carolina - Charlotte graduate with a bachelors degree in Social Work. As a former employee of Charlotte Mecklenburg School systems, Jax has experience with teaching school-aged children, in addition to the special education population. Currently, Jax is an independently contracted art facilitator, in which he models strength-based practices in his approach. In the future, he plans to combine his social work skills with artwork and open up art schools within the Charlotte area.
In this way, he hopes to turn Charlotte into a hub for all forms of art. "Art is my way out of societal restraints, and the individuals I inspire will soon discover their escapes as well."
As a reflection of his passion for social justice, Jax founded an outreach program in Charlotte, NC. In his leisure, he spends time working with various groups whom reside in his community and surrounding areas. Solely to educate and encourage them to become positive role models within their families and communities through dedication, outreach, and commitment.
Jax faithfully donates a percentage of his earnings from his artwork sales to help fund the program.
