Drew is an artist and father of two living in Portsmouth, NH. He's built his practice through deep study of art history, collaborations with artists locally and internationally, and relentless experimentation in the studio. Every opportunity becomes a way to expand his visual vocabulary; one that exists before words, in the space where feeling and material meet. Each painting is a negotiation between control and chaos, memory and invention. His continuous practice connects him with the raw immediacy of seeing and making, where imagination doesn't need permission or explanation.
