I'm a classically trained painter, and I was an illustrator in New York working with Fortune 500s companies as well as the NBA and the Olympics. I first got into sculpting when I created a sculpture based on a painting I had done for the 1984 Olympics.

In my previous life, I was an artist. I still paint. I love art.

I was always interested in photography and other forms of art.

I have been surrounded by artists and paintings throughout my life. My father Ted Dyer is an artist, and from a very early age I have spent time painting and drawing.

I feel like I became an artist by default. I went to art college, but my interest was always more towards film than painting or sculpture.

I've been painting and making things since I was little.

I started doing sculpture in 1959. I had no commissions then. They were painted, similar in style to the paintings... At a certain point, I decided I didn't want an edge between two colors, I wanted color differences in literal space.

I grew up wanting to be a painter and paint pictures.
