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.
