Visual Art – San Diego

I was born on August 20, 1987 in Napa California. I grew up with five siblings in a home full of creativity and expression, though I am the only one of six pursuing a career in Fine Art all of my siblings are very talented. My mother and Father were instrumental in nurturing this creativity in our home. I did not paint my first oil painting until I was 16 years old. I was chosen to represent my graduating class of 2005 by painting a mural on the walls of the High School. I then pursued painting commission pieces for friends family and those I met in college. I went to a private college in Santa Clara CA for two and a half years studying world missions. While I was there I began painting murals and set designing for dramatic productions. I enjoyed this but always had a longing for authentic Fine Art. I was married to my best and greatest friend Randi in April of 2009. My wife created a website and we began to sell art. We moved to San Diego in 2011 shortly after our son Titus was born and decided to make a career as a Fine Art Painter in Southern California. As the culture was significantly different here than Napa my subject quickly changed focus so that we could generate an income. I began selling my Artwork in public at the La Jolla Cove. This became very successful very quickly.
