Anthony Padilla

Born: 1987

Hometown: Dallas Texas

Based in: New York

I’m a native Texan living and working out of Brooklyn NY. I’ve been painting for as long as I can remember but in the last several years I’ve taken what began as a hobby to a much more professional level. My paintings are intended to connect the viewer into the beauty and wonder of our natural world.

We don't have any works from this artist at the moment.
