    KIRK SEESE: On The Road Again

    Kirk Seese grew up in Maryland, where he’s worked for most of his career.  But he’s also pretty comfortable on the road.  That’s a good thing, because it takes less time to list the states where his art is not exhibited than to list the states where his art is exhibited.  An early love of art has never abated and now we see the manifestation of that love all across the country.
