Jeff Parrott (aka Psyexpression)[1] (born 1983, Dallas, Texas, United States), is an American artist who grew up in Dallas. Parrott discovered his interest in art during college, defining a unique style 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 where he received awards, and twice became a finalist for the Hunting Art Prize.[2] 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.
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.
