Jason Poole hatched in 1970 someplace in the eastern United States where he was raised by squirrels. His interest in art was spawned as he learned to read from discarded comic books in the mean streets of Philadelphia. To this day the dynamic line art of comic books has left an impression on " Mr. Poole" as he is called by his jungle friends. Mr. Poole has produced art for National Geographic and National Geographic World magazines, several scientific publications, and museums. Jason enjoys long walks in the badlands of Montana and Wyoming and spending time with his offspring and life mate.
