Felix Concepcion

Originally from Brooklyn New York, where I lived with my three sisters, my mother and sometimes my grandmother in a railroad apartment. There was very little time to just sit and draw, it was a very active household and we also had chores and schoolwork to worry about. Growing up we had very little in terms of finances, so my mother would take us to The Museums of New York every other weekend. I loved looking at the vast variety of animals in the Museum of Natural History and the beautiful art and antiquities of The Metropolitan Museum of art. Walking from gallery to gallery, admiring all of the sculptures of ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt, The wood carved mask from the various countries of Africa and South America. Especially the paintings of the old masters from the early renaissance to the modern era. I graduated from the High School of Art and Design with a major in Animation. I completed two semesters of Multi-Media at the Art institute of New York, where I learned about film making, directing and sound editing and mixing. Unfortunately, due to financial hardships and a major family loss, I had to leave college and worked in several retail stores. Luckily, I found work at many major Art supply stores, where I was able to converse with other creative co-workers and customers. Learning about different various mediums and styles of art. Eventually my retail journey lead me back to The Metropolitan Museum where I was reintroduced to the art works I fell in love with as a child. I currently Reside in Nutley New Jersey with my Husband Rodney Sexton and our three dogs Iggiy, Bogie and Gracie.
