Jackson Lamme is a multidisciplinary artist specializing in 3D animation, digital painting, and oil painting. Originally from Canandaigua, New York, he is currently pursuing a degree in 3D Animation at the New York Film Academy and holds an Associate of Science degree in Business Administration. A U.S. Army veteran, Jackson served for six years at Fort Drum and in Baumholder, Germany before transitioning fully into the creative field.

With a background that includes time spent in Rochester, NY, and Tampa, FL, Jackson brings a wide range of lived experiences to his work. His art is rooted in surrealism and expressionism, often characterized by visually powerful, highly detailed compositions. Known for his independent thinking and unconventional approach, he frequently challenges assumptions—both through his creative practice and his personal philosophy. His portfolio can be found at www.skyoptional.com.

Andrew’s signature artwork is Screw Art which is a very unique form of art. Thousands of screws get drilled into a wood board very closely to each other but at different depths to create a sculptural relief of the image, where each screw head becomes a canvas. This steel canvas then gets painted over with a size-0 brush to mimic the actual image. Each final product is a true testament to craft, strength, and artistry.

Although Andrew is best known for his screw pieces, his work spans multiple genres and mediums, including sculpting, painting, and drawing. Every art piece is an experiment in art, mathematics and creative problem solving. Because Andrew’s artworks are very time and labor intensive, he only produces about 10-12 screw pieces a year.

Andrew always continues to push the boundaries of his craft constantly searching for new subjects and unconventional mediums. His guiding principle is to create better art today than he did yesterday.
