ROB WRIGHT BIO Born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, February 17, 1973, to Ed and June Wright, Rob was one of three boys raised in a military family. There were frequent moves including Virginia, California, Colorado, and Saudi Arabia. High School was attended at Rampart High School, Colorado Springs, CO. During high school, the passion for art was released and led to further studies upon graduation. Santa Fe, New Mexico is where the pursuit of a Bachelor’s Degree of Fine Arts was obtained. While attending the college, the interest in printing, specifically block printing was piqued. Initially a sculpture major, there was a draw to the sculptural aspects of the block carving process. Further investigation and practice revealed the desire to utilize the actual wood block as an intricate displayable part of the print. Upon graduation from college, this idea has remained a central theme of the work. Currently employed as a sleep technician, Rob has continued to show work and develop the vision; the action is being taken to move towards the point where sole creation becomes possible. Please enjoy viewing the next few pages where the art is displayed!
