Ben grew up in sunny Central Phoenix. As a child he went often to the Phoenix Museum of Art with family, and on school field trips. Curiously, he rejected the more commonly appreciated Cowboy artwork, and started exploring and investigating more contemporary abstract works. After several years away from Arizona in his early adulthood, he finds himself once again, back in the Phoenix area, again enjoying the sun. His work now reflects the landscapes of his various places of residence throughout the United States.
Ben joined Grand Image in 2008.
