About Bannister

Baltimore City
Born in 1985 in Haymarket Virginia.  I moved to Baltimore in 2004 to study at the Maryland Institute of Art.  I graduated in 2008, with a major in Painting.  I currently live and work in Baltimore.  

My paintings and drawings are done from direct observation from life; the world around me.  My paintings develop slowly over a prolonged passage of time spent observing a living space.  The time of day I choose to work is important in describing the sense of light.
