Jonathan is a newlywed. He married Sarah Atchley-Howe on a perfect first day of spring in March of 2010. Sarah manages Jonathan Howe Fine Art, and Jonathan and she live urban-artistically in the heart of Knoxville. Committed to merging art and his faith in Jesus Christ, he and Sarah are active in their local church, combining their talents for art and music and their heart to see others come to a saving knowledge of Christ. Other than their work, Jonathan and Sarah enjoy hospitality and taking care of their rambunctious little Maltipoo, Amber.

"I have always been fascinated by the uniqueness of each human face and the story it tells. The work of portrature is never dull and each blank canvas is the opportunity for adventure and challenge---the challenge to freeze time, yet show personality and a glimpse into a person's world using color, light and texture. I feel as though I am just beginning to understand the full spectrum and depth of colors and the possibilities they hold. This desire to understand color and light is parallel to my desire to know the very One who created light and color and beauty. Thus I seek to give Jesus the honor and glory in the art that He lets me create. I believe that drawing and painting with excellence and beauty is part of magnifying His work in creation."
