Sean Conrad

At the age of 30, Sean Conrad has a strong hold on his chosen career as an artist. After several explorations into other fields, he found himself always missing the satisfaction and pure enjoyment he felt when expressing himself artistically, and decided it was time to concentrate on art full time.

Born in Tuscola, IL in 1973, Conrad has been surrounded in art since childhood. His father built a successful career as a cartoonist and, wanting to follow in his footsteps, Sean began drawing characters everywhere, of everyone, often at times when his attention should have been elsewhere.

Conrad began his career in San Diego, CA with an education in graphic design and computer animation. After graduation, he worked in graphic design, excited with all the possibilities available to him, and was soon promoted into management and the corporate 8-5 lifestyle. Although he excelled in his new position, he knew something was missing. That something was discovered during a week-long trip to southern Colorado to visit his father. Painting plein air for the first time, he found himself entirely captivated with the natural beauty and relished in transcribing what he saw to canvas.

Well on his way to a satisfying and successful career in fine art, Sean Conrad has the advantage of age, early wisdom in regard to following one’s heart, a supportive wife and friends, and the talent envied by many an artist.
