General
Jason Sanders is a skilled artist involved with a recent fraud case in which he produced forgeries sold under the name of the anonymous painter Z. He graduated from art school in 2019, but his work remained undiscovered in the 11 years since, leaving him dependent on part-time jobs and the incomes from his ex-wife, Reimi Lee, whom he'd met in university and married after graduation. In 2030, when Reimi fell ill, Jason claimed he had cheated on Reimi with Cher Young, who would go on to redirect his artistic skill into forgeries.[2]
During his time divorced and living alone, Jason was a very private and solitary individual who rarely left his home. He left little impression on his neighbors[2] and smelled strongly of paint, cigarette smoke, and poor hygiene. He was also cynical about the value of fame and dreams vs. the value of money, stating he was happy to produce imitation paintings to become rich in his lifetime rather than hope to be known after his death.[3]
Jason is noted as being an extremely skillful forger, able to replicate at least 80% of the true Z's techniques and strokes. However, the replications are noted to be mechanical in nature only, without the soul that can truly touch a viewer.[4] Notably, he failed to replicate specific lighting techniques that Z borrows from Klimt rather than Rembrandt.[5]
