Bold. Abstract. Dimensional.

The art of Jason Zickler demands your attention. Step into a world of light, texture, and movement—where every stroke is intentional and every surface is alive.

Shine That Speaks

Epoxy Resin Transforms the Surface. Zickler Transforms the Story.

Jason Zickler is an emerging artist making serious waves with a signature style that combines high-gloss epoxy resin with fearless physical expression. His work doesn’t just hang—it radiates.

Zickler’s technique is rooted in craftsmanship and elevated by experimentation. His use of epoxy resin adds a vivid, glass-like finish that captures light, shifts with perspective, and draws you in closer. These aren’t just paintings—they’re reflections of emotion, energy, and memory, locked in a glossy, touchable finish. Each layer glows. Each color pulses. Each piece feels alive.

Where Emotion Meets Movement

Art Made with Muscle, Memory, & Meaning.

slide: slīd/ verb

Layered

to apply color

Tilt

to bring to life

"In my process, paint isn’t just applied—it’s guided. I pour, tilt, and manipulate the canvas so that the materials glide across the surface, maintaining contact as they shift and settle into unexpected patterns. The motion is smooth but charged with energy, like watching emotion stretch across a polished mirror. The final result is a dynamic fusion of control and chaos, frozen mid-slide beneath a glossy resin finish."

pour: pôr/ verb

Flow

with purpose

Stream

across the surface

"Pouring is the heart of my process—steady, fluid, and full of intention. I work with paint the way one might work with memory: letting it flow freely, but always with purpose. As color streams across the surface, it creates layers of movement and energy that can’t be replicated with a brush. There’s a rhythm to the pour—a balance between letting go and guiding the flow—that captures raw emotion in real time. Sealed under resin, these poured moments are preserved with depth, light, and an irresistible shine."

scrape: skrāp/ verb

Erase

to reveal

Trails

giving an edge

"Scraping is where the tension lives—raw, textured, and beautifully imperfect. I use scraping not to erase, but to reveal—to cut through smooth surfaces and expose what’s underneath. Whether it’s dragging a tool through thick paint or pulling layers back to create contrast, the act leaves behind scars, trails, and texture that give the piece its edge. It’s a physical gesture, full of friction and intent, adding depth where shine meets grit. Each scrape tells a story—of what was there, what’s been uncovered, and what refuses to stay hidden."

From Baja to the Midwest

A Different Approach, Using a New Method of Painting

Zickler creates most of his work flat on its back, hovering over the canvas, pushing, pouring, and pulling paint with dramatic, sweeping gestures. Then, at just the right moment, he tips the piece upright to let gravity and chemistry play their part—creating unexpected forms, surprising drips, and a beautiful kind of chaos. His technique echoes the expressive intensity of the abstract expressionists—but with a modern twist that’s unmistakably his own.
