Artist Background

Andrew Scott DeJesse grew up in Marlboro, New Jersey and received his BFA in Illustration from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. After several years of working as an Art Director in Pharmaceutical Advertising, he relocated to Texas. The vastness and solitude of the Texas landscapes made such an impression on Andrew that he felt compelled to capture the truth and quiet beauty of the Southwest in his paintings.

Andrew's works have been exhibited in several solo and group shows and he was a 2007 Hunting Art Prize finalist. His works can be found in many private and corporate collections such as Lyondell, Halliburton, Schlumberger and National Oil Well.
