About Me

My name is Jason Ott - I'm an artist, graphic designer, and sculptor (wood, metal, stone, assemblage). Check out my pics for samples of my work...

I'm originally from Mason City, Iowa. It used to be called River City, which if you know your musical theatre, it is THE River City from the Music Man. May God rest your soul Buddy Hacket... I moved to Kentucky about 4 years ago. I was married in April 2006 to my beloved wife, singer/songwriter Angie Arnold.

One of my artistic passions is the Greenman...I'm exploring this theme from the perspective of different seasons, and how these tie into our own life cycles. I am also trying to explore the Sci-Fi/Fantasy genre, and also working on getting gallery representation.

My Interests

Art - Antiques - Film - Music - Martial Arts
