Since a young age, Jeff Soto has been captivated by the visual arts. He credits early exposure to the work of Mercer Mayer and Patrick Woodroffe as stimuli for his creativity. When he was 15, he began to dabble in the art of graffiti, which he credits as a major influence in his art. His artistic influences are too many to list but include Van Gogh, Twist, Otto Dix, Georganne Deen, Alex Gross, Manuel Ocampo, Margaret Kilgallen, and the Clayton Brothers. Jeff's work has been shown in galleries across the U.S. and most recently in Europe. He graduated with Distinction from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. In his spare time he enjoys sleeping in with the wife, searching for aliens at night, reading comics, taking crappy photos, and nurturing the ever-growing cacti farm. |
