I was born in Christiansted, St. Croix USVI and raised in the south side of Atlanta, Georgia. All my life I've been drawn to the arts and have always had a connection to the style of photo-realism. Why photo-realism? Well, that's what drove my passion to draw! While everyone else was drawing clouds, rainbows, and stick figures, I was taking my shot at attempting to draw actual people. I always focused on capturing the likeness of whatever I was referencing when drawing, which ultimately grew to being all about the details when creating. This "obsession" for precision bleeds into all that I do. I love working with graphite, charcoal, pastels as well as acrylics. Dean Beresford - Instagram Link
