Spring Break Jake is a Minneapolis-born self-taught artist living & working in Bend, OR with both traditional and digital mediums.

Operating in a near-constant state of inner growth, each new painting feels like a lesson in vulnerability and self-expression as Jake navigates the highs & lows of our finite lives, striving to bring a sense of solidarity around our shared experiences with mental health to everyone who encounters his art.

With influences ranging far & wide, from the lonely waves of a secret beach town to the poignant sounds of a melancholic melody to the destroyed underside of a well-loved skateboard, Jake’s art recognizes that no one gets out of this life alive, but we can all find paradise along the way.
