At the age of 32, Sean Conrad has a strong hold on his chosen career as an artist. After several explorations into other fields, he found himself always missing the satisfaction and pure enjoyment he felt when expressing himself artistically.

Conrad began his career in San Diego, CA with an education in graphic design and computer animation. The corporate life was over and he moved to Trinidad, CO to continue fulfilling his newfound dream of becoming a professional artist.

Doors opened, and he met, became friends with, and began to study informally with internationally-known artist, Eric Michaels. His new mentor encouraged him, and Conrad soon moved into a studio in the A. R. Mitchell Museum and was invited to show his work there and in the Buffalo Nickel Gallery in Cimarron, NM. Sean and his wife Christy now live in Iowa.
