Times Square, NYC - Path To Art New York

Masterpiece Spotlight - Fall, 2026

My painting, "Herman In Blue," was shown in Times Square for Path To New York's, "Masterpiece Spotlight" on 10/18/2026! (The painting is top row center on the screen.)

“Jason C. Bennett (b. 1969, Los Angeles) is an American oil painter and singer-songwriter. While he has written and produced numerous albums of acoustic-based music throughout his career, his visual practice focuses on expressive oil paintings that blend elements of contemporary folk art and expressionism. Influenced by artists such as Vincent van Gogh, Gabriele Münter and Richard Diebenkorn, Bennett has developed a distinctive painterly language characterised by ragged textures, muted tones and an intuitive, narrative quality. His work reflects a deep appreciation for traditional artistic influences while maintaining a contemporary sensibility. ”

Spring, 2026 Issue 13

"Jason Bennett is an American oil painter and singer-songwriter whose work blends elements of contemporary folk art and expressionism. Through textured surfaces, muted palettes, and an appreciation for storytelling, he creates evocative portraits that bridge memory, character and emotion. In Herman In Blue, Bennett presents a solitary figure rendered with expressive brushwork and quiet dignity. Set against a warm ochre background, the portrait balances vulnerabilty and resilience, inviting viewers to imagine the life and experiences carried within the subject's weathered features. The simplified composition and bold use of color emphasize emotional presence over realism, transforming an ordinary portrait into a timeless reflection on humanity and character."
