Considering Art Podcast – Jason Michael Bentley, art and martial art.

Jason Michael Bentley is an American fine artist based in Scotland. In this episode, he talks about how a love of drawing cartoon characters as a child led to portrait painting in later life, how learning Tae Kwon Do as a child gave him a sense of community and discipline, how this led to an interest in Korean and Japanese culture, moving from Chicago to Scotland, what painting means for him, how he sets up certain portrait scenarios, the importance of drawing and his artistic heroes.
