Jim Olson is the artist behind Jono Art. Having drawn for years as a hobby, Jim founded Jono Art in 1998 with his wife Nancy as a means for showcasing and selling their art. Jim's favorite medium is pen and ink and many of his drawings reflect his surroundings in Northwestern Pennsylvania.
Jono Art currently has a number of Jim's original pen and ink drawings available for purchase. Additionally, many of Jim's drawings are available as limited edition prints and notecards. Other items available for purchase include wooden shaker boxes handpainted by Jim and a number of works by other artisans.
Highly collected by galleries, museums, corporations and individuals; Orsillo is the recipient of many prestigious national and international awards.
As a Fine Artist and Photographer, His fine art paintings, photography and sculptures appear in major motion pictures, on television, book covers, record album and CD covers. And if you were around New England in the late 60’s early 70’s you have seen his wall murals and giant industrial sculptures.
As an illustrator, Bob has illustrated books on biology, poetry, children’s stories, mystery and science fiction. He also has illustrated “how to books” on painting, on photography, and on CG and Mat Painting
His social and political art is regularly used to illustrate human rights, homelessness, abuse and violence. This site does not attempt to give a definitive view of Bob Orsillo's art; it offers brief glances into his work from his first exhibit in 1969 to the present day.
He has been called “Americas best kept secret.” And “a combination of Edgar Allen Poe and William Shakespeare, but in good way.” "For those who care to look, Orsillo’s art work is a visual journey to familiar places we have never been."
