ABOUT THE ARTIST:
- Ronald Brandt was born as Ronald Davis in Indianola, Mississippi, in 1975.
- He
received his BA in Art Education from City College of New York in
2007, after three years of study in the BFA Illustration program at
the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan.
- He carries his sketchbook everywhere, and he would cry if he lost it.
- He would also cry if he ever lost his iPod again.
- He would like to complete a marathon someday, but has unfortunately found that he doesn't like to run all that much.
- He lives
in Speonk, New York, with his wife, Julia. For fun, they take pictures
of the food they eat and collect them in their "food journals."
Surprisingly, they have not made a blog out of it.
