Jason "King Leo" Neal

Visual Art – New York - Brooklyn

Jason “King Leo” Neal is an emerging artist and graphic designer based in New York City. He has also curated his identity as an independent artist. The self-proclaimed “art-repreneur” has exhibited/sold work throughout Upstate New York’s Tri-City Area, New York City, and has art on display in Los Angeles. With a love for music and metaphors, Jason typically writes poetry to complement his visual work. The young visionary treats art and writing with a confessional approach. He views a blank canvas as a page in a journal, and the painting becomes an entry. Rather than following a motif or trademark style, Jason refers to his results of varied mediums and diverse subject matter as his “visual diary." His dream is to use contemporary tools such as social networking and media outlets to make art a more mainstream aspect of popular culture in a way sports or music is widely recognized.
