|
UTA alumnus David DeGrand has always been drawn to the sillier side of art. In fact, he first began finding his footing as an artist in his fifth-grade art class after drawing a comic strip as part of an assignment.
Before long, DeGrand had filled up notebooks and sketchbooks with what he calls his “weird ideas and silly art,” saying, “I just fell in love with it.”
