Artistry and the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge are excited to announce Perspective Memories by Jade Lent and Billy Thao. Both Jade and Billy grew up in Minnesota and have been creating illustrations since they were children. Their process and perspectives grew with them creating the artist they are today. We are excited to bring them together in the Confluence Gallery to share their perspectives of the Minnesota River Valley and how nature has influenced their lives.

ABOUT TYLER MADDAUS: Ever since I can remember I have had a passion and desire to create. Growing up I would constantly think about what I wanted to make next! It started with drawing my favorite athletes with dad while we watched the Vikings on football Sunday, to painting landscapes after watching my mom do it for so many years. Then to creating my own furniture and experimenting with resin coffee tables. Even to my work now as a Creative Manager at Saint Thomas Academy, where I create digital art that can be as small as a social media graphic but also as big as a billboard or 60 foot banner! Whether it be 2-D or 3-D, big or small, this desire to create is always burning in the back of my mind. It has pushed me to try new things and create in ways that I never have before. As I grow older I'm not sure exactly what this desire has in store for me but for now I just get to keep creating....and I'm alright with that! So please enjoy taking a stroll through my art, give me a follow on instagram, buy a print, and have a nice day!
