Today’s world is one that allows people to be whoever they want to be in any dimension they choose. While acceptance might be slow in some quarters, one key theme that everyone is adopting is that one must accept and embrace oneself fully before seeking validation elsewhere. Ninteen-year-old trans man and freelance illustrator, Jax Perez has spent his whole life being himself and hopes to impact the world strong enough to influence other people to adopt the same approach in their lives.
The talented illustrator, passionate about art, animation, and acting, is a big proponent of self-expression and fully embracing one’s essence. Thus, he has channeled his creativity in a way that has enabled him to build a community based on love, comfort, and understanding. He embodies the idea that nobody should be ashamed of doing what they love or what brings them comfort, no matter how many people find it strange. He inspires the creative community and helps people create and express themselves in the most authentic ways possible.
As someone from a challenging background, he understands what it means to have real-life pursuit, so he never allows anything to get in the way of things he enjoys. His deep love for animation and storytelling has deeply influenced his art style, and he never holds back when it comes to showcasing and talking about them.
He also holds his clients in high esteem and makes sure they receive high-quality customer service, clear communication, prompt delivery, and a great deal of respect that assures them that they’re working with a true professional.
Through his brand, Crown Jevvel, Jax Perez creates colorful art illustrations of animated characters. He has his entire portfolio on his website as well as his social media pages on Instagram and Twitter. He hopes to connect with as many people as possible who appreciate art or love to create it while inspiring other young artists to never stop creating.
He sees himself working with big brands, storytellers, and film and animation studios over the next few years. His passion for his work keeps him going while he nurses the hope that he will one day change the situation of his family. “I work hard at the moment, but we’re yet to get there. I have a whole lot of people who look up to me, and I believe the next few years of success can do a lot for them,” Perez said.With success on the horizon, Jax Perez has no plans to slow down or stop creating. He believes that by continuously creating, someone will notice and appreciate his work someday. “Even if it’s one person, just one email can change your life and take you to heights you never imagined,” he said. “You can never tell when but you better stay prepared for that day because it will come. It’s why I never stop working, and I always advise every young artist to keep doing the same and putting their works out,” he added.
