Since 1995, Jason Beam has been working in the digital art medium, creating intricate illustrations through computer generated means. Combining photography, found objects and hand-drawn elements, his frenetic detail and unique style has established him as a prevailing artist in the digital medium. Jason Beam’s combination of surrealism and photography creates art that cannot be created in the darkroom or with software alone. The end result is a dreamlike environment that is strangely and uniquely captivating.

His work has found it's way into American galleries such as Echo in Chicago, IL, Galerie Luna in Salem, MA and Dark Secrets in Philadelphia, PA. He is currently part of Les Barany's 'Carnivora' traveling exhibit, which appeared at C-Pop in Detroit, L'Imagerie in North Hollywood, and in NYC in 2009. He was a Special Guest Artist at the 2008 Dirty Show Erotic Art Exhibit in Detroit. His work also graces the permanent collection in the Centre Jean D'Arc in Orleans, France - a museum dedicated to Saint Joan of Arc. Jason Beam's art has been highlighted in books, magazines, calendars, CDs and feature films. He has done commission work for actors, actresses and professional athletes - all of which looking for a style of art that fits their personality. His work is considered by some as dark, gothic or macabre, but regardless of definition, his work has made an impression amongst peers and audiences.

Jekyll and Hyde, Red Riding Hood, Bloody Mary and other illustrations feature fictional and mythological characters that are ingrained into human consciousness. Jason Beam takes those characters and interprets them in a different and unique way, but still disseminates the overall emotion that surrounds the subject. He takes great care in the development of each piece, paying strict attention to detail, color and composition.

Jason Beam's design experience stems from his nine-year tenure as Art Director at one of Montana's oldest advertising agencies, Walker Design Group. He spent several years as an instructor at Montana State University College of Technology, teaching classes in Advanced Adobe Photoshop and Creative Adobe Photoshop. He has enjoyed community involvement as a member of the Education Committee for the Great Falls Advertising Federation, Chairman of the Marketing and Public Relations Committee for YES Great Falls (now PulseGF) and Chairman of the Spookyart Charity Project, which raised monies for the Juvenile Diabetes Reseach Foundation and Chicago's Fairy Godmother organization through the auction of original artwork.

Combining his love for art with his passion for design, he continues to enjoy the challenges of both fields of creativity. See more of Jason Beam's illustration and fine art on his website at jasonbeam.com
