Artist Biography

Artist Jeff Waddle was born in Fresno California in 1970 and grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. In 1990 Jeff served in the Navy and Desert Storm Desert Shield as a Hull Technician working on the USS. Yellowstone as a metal fabricator in the ship fitter shop.  After serving in the military, he moved to Arkansas and worked in metal factories.   It was then that he took metal and began creating new works of art.  He expanded into painting in 2000, Jeff’s artistic style is a whimsical world linking past to future.  His metal and his paintings merge into a bigger than life interactive surrealist world depicting his past memories and world travel experiences, along with the alienistic cosmic designs and characters of his imagination.
