Jeff Parrott

'Jeff Parrott' (aka Psyexpression)[1] (born 1983, Dallas, Texas, United States), is an American artist. He grew up in Dallas.[2] Parrott discovered his interest in art during college, defining a style for his art which included creatures portrayed in distorted, psychedelic forms. He implemented bright colors into the mélange of images that flowed from his inner thoughts, splayed out onto the canvas. While attending Texas A&M Commerce, Parrott was invited to participate in numerous exhibitions, winning awards, and twice becoming a finalist for the Hunting Art Prize.[3] Parrott graduated with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Painting and Drawing in 2010.

After receiving his BFA, Parrott was accepted as a graduate student at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where he began to realize a transformation into being a fine artist. Spending whole days and nights in the studio overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan, he looked for ways to transpose the chaos around him onto canvas - reflecting the barrage of noise and energy of Chicago. After receiving his MFA from SAIC, he chose to return to Dallas to pursue his artistic career. [[File:Parrott

Since returning to Texas in 2012, Parrott has remained dedicated to his studio practice, and has had solo exhibitions with Ro2 Art and The Town of Addison as well as being included in important exhibitions at El Centro College and The McKinney Avenue Contemporary,[4][5] and featured in Dallas Art Fair with Ro2 Art. He was included as a third time finalist for the Hunting Art Prize, and has been published in the quarterly publication, New American Paintings.[6][7][8]
