In Jonathan Lyndon Chase’s paintings, faces go from cartoony (masks, he says) to realistic.  The subject is the body, the black male body, the black queer body.  Jonathan, who got his MFA from PAFA in 2016, is soft-spoken but intense.  Easy to talk with and direct in his answers, no BS. Four of his works are in the current Fleisher-Ollman exhibit, up to Jan. 28. Among other things in this conversation, Jonathan talks about his materials. His works are filled with materials-brio.
