JT McCord was born December 28, 1948 in Thomson, GA.  He started painting in 1984, after he saw "some white ladies taking painting lessons at the Hawes Paint Store" in Thomson, where he lives today.  His first subject was an alligator he saw on television, a source from which he derives most of his inspiration.  Jake likes to "showcase" his art on his front porch, and he is adamant about the amount of time a piece needs to be displayed before it can be sold.  His bold, humorous paintings are usually painted on plywood boards, and his favorite subjects are cats, dogs, horses and women with big hairdos.

His work is included in many private collections and has been featured at the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Center in Virginia and the House of Blues in Orlando, Florida.
