Fonts • Custom Lettering • Graphic Design • Logos • Web Graphics

   Hello and thank you for visiting my website! My name is Jason Walcott. I have always been a creative person at heart. Ever since I was a small child, I have had a love for visual arts. I can remember being fascinated by lettering and fonts as early as the age of 3. It seemed only natural that I would go into the visual arts and graphics field. Graphic design brings together all the best of my creative interests into one area: Color, art, type, form and function. I graduated cum laude from Kean University in 1997 with a BFA in Illustration, with additional courses in Graphic Design and Fine Art.

   Walcott Design is a one-man "company" I have created in order to maintain a freelance career in Graphic Design and Typeface Design. My first font was "Holiday Times" and was released at MyFonts.com under my original and first type foundry, JAW Fonts. When JAW Fonts came to the attention of the then up and coming Veer Inc, I agreed to partner with Veer and the library was relaunched as Jukebox. In recent months I have launched my new type foundry, CounterPoint which will continue to provide me a venue through which I can offer my type designs to the world.

   Throughout my career as a graphic artist, there has remained a deep love for Fine Art as well. I have a separate website, WalcottFineArt.com, to showcase my paintings, and I offer fine art for sale as well as high-end graphics and fonts. I am fascinated by art history, the mechanics of painting as well as the aesthetics, and have an ongoing passion for the history and science behind the materials used to create art.

   Art and Design is a profession in which I will never stop growing, never stop striving to reach the next level. And I wouldn't want to stop...for if one hits the ceiling, then where is there to go?

   Please feel free to contact me if you have a question or comment and I will be happy to answer! Or please visit my blog and/or follow me on Twitter. Enjoy!
