Bio

I have been an artist my entire life and my media has ranged from jewelry & sculpture to graphite drawings & digital art. Currently I am an acrylic painter of magical realism and representational abstracts. See AKAJAke.com if you are curious about my work.

I also maintain an art blog there too, AKAJAke.com/blog.

I have a masters degree in nuclear physics, and I have been addicted to science, mathematics and technology for years.

To feed my art and tech addictions I run a business, Art & Business Consulting LLC, which specializes in small business services, taxation, accounting, bookkeeping, human resources and other needs of micro/small companies and start-ups. I am a licensed Enrolled Agent (EA). I have been a small business specialist for more than 10 years. ArtandBusinessConsulting.com, short form anbcllc.com.

I maintain a Taxes, Tips and Tools Blog, ArtandBusinessConsulting.com/blog.

In the long run I would like support myself entirely from my art that is to say I would like to be a flaky artist when I grow up.

Currently I create acrylic paintings of birds and binary based on humorous observations of social media and pop culture.

My current interest is art marketing as I pretty much stink at it; I am aiming to become a professional publicity hound instead of the social networking klutz I am right now. Welcome to the experiment!
