About The Artist
Aloha mai!
My name is JT Ojerio and I was born and raised on the beautiful island of Oahu in Hawai’i.
My artist’s journey began in late 2016 on a couch in cold, snowy Chicago. Momentarily stuck there due to a recent hip surgery, I began to sketch trying to pass the time as quickly as possible. Wishing I was home on the beach instead of freezing Chicago I started with little images that reminded me of Hawaii and its warmth. I quickly fell in love with the peace I felt while drawing and continued on after my recovery with my best friend at my side, my dog Mele.
I hope my art brings you joy, comfort, warmth, and some smooth island vibes like it did for me on those cold Chiberia days.
Mahalo nui,
JT + Mele
