Walker's adeptness with the oil medium is palpable, turning this creation into not just an optical banquet but also a showcase of his unparalleled finesse.

Artist Bio:
Jason Walker’s imagery reflects popular culture: from Disney’s Mary Poppins or Mickey Mouse to frosted doughnuts. As observer and conveyor of cultural icons, he is an anthropologist and his beautiful and often endearing paintings resonates with art viewers. But this Toronto artist is also an analyst. Conceived with the clear-eyed vision of a native of Nairn, Scotland, Walker’s compositions challenge viewers to consider contemporary culture.
Through his iconography, Walker creates artifacts, a paint-on-canvas time capsule for future generations. His images are representational rather than abstract. His subjects from Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz to Peter Pan’s Tinker Bell are non-elitist, international, and easily identified. A portrait of our time, Walker’s renditions are intimate and lifelike, crafted with diffused edges or Old-Master chiaroscuro. Painted in Renaissance jewel-tones, his work is, like sugar, irresistible. Whether of mouth-watering Timbits or Mary Poppins and Bert, the seductive beauty of Walker’s imagery draws the viewer in.
Yet Walker’s art remains within post-modernism and, although representational, is also conceptual. His subjects are more than icons and represent archetypes, what psychologist Carl Jung describes as symbols of our collective unconscious. Dorothy’s quest for wisdom is universal, as is the helpfulness of Tinker Bell or the loyalty of Pluto. Comforting and familiar, yet symbolic, these figures elicit childhood hopes and fears. Echoing psychologist Bruno Bettleheim’s “uses of enchantment”, Walker’s iconic figures enable viewers to find their own archetypes or cultural heroes.
Through live-action figures and figurines, Walker also conveys the universality of emotions: the romantic, the tragic and the comic. Yet his humour is playful and often subtle. Frosted doughnuts evoke the realism of the 17th-century Belgian nature morte or still-life tradition. A special-effects animator for the award-winning (or Oscar-nominated) Madame Tutli-Putli, Walker employs humour to bring social concepts to life. His addition of Dolly, the sheep, to the human evolution chain encourages smiles as well as commentary. Although these compositions invite viewers to make associations, the pleasure principle prevails.
