Who Is Jason Bard Yarmosky?
Jason Bard Yarmosky is an American artist born in New York in 1987. His paintings and drawings are widely recognized for exploring themes of aging, memory, time, and the passage of life—subjects inspired by his close childhood relationship with his grandparents, who were approximately six decades older than him.
He earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York City in 2010.
Over the years, his artwork has been exhibited internationally at respected institutions including the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, San Antonio Museum of Art, Addison Gallery of American Art, and several others. He has also held solo exhibitions at venues such as the Huntington Museum of Art and the University of Maine Museum of Art.

One of his most notable recent projects is “Timeless Women in New York,” a portrait series featuring large-scale paintings of inspiring women displayed in Bergdorf Goodman’s iconic Fifth Avenue windows.
Beyond creating art, Yarmosky also teaches drawing and anatomy classes, including at the Art Students League of New York. His official website, jasonyarmosky.com, features his biography, portfolio, CV, and latest projects.
With Holmes born in 1978 and Yarmosky born in 1987, the pair have an age difference of roughly 10 years.
Katie Holmes’ Dating History Adds More Interest to the New Sighting
If the relationship speculation proves accurate, this would mark Holmes’ first notable public romantic outing since her relationship with musician Bobby Wooten III in 2022. The two were first seen together in April 2022 before later ending their relationship that same year.
Before that, Holmes was in a six-year relationship with Jamie Foxx, which ended in 2019. She was previously married to Tom Cruise from 2006 to 2012, and the former couple share daughter Suri, who was born in 2006. Holmes was also linked to chef Emilio Vitolo Jr. between 2020 and 2021.
Following her divorce from Cruise, Holmes has largely kept her personal life private while focusing on her acting, directing, and producing career. More recently, she reunited professionally with former Dawson’s Creek co-star Joshua Jackson—whom she briefly dated in the late 1990s—for her film Happy Hours, which premiered at Tribeca in 2026. Jackson, however, has been linked to model Olivia Burgess.
