Jeff Lowe's Updated Bio: I was born in 1977 and didn't see my world visually for what it could be for 30 years. My paintings and drawings up until this point are as primitive as beast sex to me, and it is hard to look at what I created as art but more as the evolution of what I will create next, making this "updated" bio hard to write and the ongoing process of growth clear. I feel the most raw form of art is to lose all structure and boundaries and to create something pure, on canvas and in life.
