Artist Bio
Jon Kardamis is a professional portrait artist who captures life’s best moments on canvas, so that his clients can remember and cherish these memories for generations to come.

Throughout the years prominent artists have made their way by studying with Masters of their time. This allowed them to fully grasp what it takes to become successful in the field of art. Shortly after receiving his degree in Studio Art, Jon decided to further his education by pursuing this time tested method. Jon sought out the guidance of today’s most prominent and successful artists. Completing internships across the country, Jon was selected to study with world renowned portrait artist Michael Shane Neal. While studying in Nashville, Jon received first hand guidance from his mentor, learning to personalize each painting to the client and continue to unlock new possibilities within a composition.
