I grew up around the Milwaukee area and I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Iowa. Since graduating back in 2010, I returned to my Milwaukee roots, where I currently reside.
I have artwork hanging in numerous local establishments, most notably the Fiserv Forum. I've worked alongside many different organizations and corporations, sold work to celebrities, and have shipped artwork internationally to private collectors.
I've performed at over 125 Live Painting Events and have contributed and donated works to various organizations, including the Susan G Komen Foundation, the Vince Lombardi Foundation, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the National Kidney Foundation, the This Time Tomorrow Foundation, Aurora Healthcare, Ascension St Joseph Hospital, and Project Bubaloo (Congenital Heart Disease Research).
I'm a pretty simple dude who just likes to create art. I like switching up my styles, combining techniques and always trying new things.
I love hearing what anyone has to say about my work, whether that be good or bad. So feel free to reach out to me anytime. If you've made it this far, I appreciate you for taking the time to check out my art.
Best,
- Cole
