• About:

  Jason Seiler studied fine art illustration in Chicago at the American Academy of Art. Some of his clients include GOLF Magazine, MAD Magazine, TIME, Guitar Player, The Wall Street Journal, Village Voice, Penguin Group, The New York Times, Universal Pictures, and New Line Cinema just to name a few. Most importantly, he is the adoring husband of his wife Kat, the father of two irresistible and beautiful daughters, Isabeau, and Ava. There s more to Jason, but he doesn t think you re ready for it. When you are, he ll give it to you funny, because he knows that, like George Bernard Shaw says, If you are going to tell people the truth, you d better make them laugh. Otherwise they ll kill you.
