Tyson Snow embarked on his artistic journey in 2004 at The Marshall Gallery in Scottsdale, AZ, swiftly gaining acclaim and fostering a burgeoning interest in his work. As a finalist in the American Artist Magazine's "Cover Art Competition," he has left an indelible mark on the art scene. Featured multiple times in the American Art Collector Magazine and various publications, Snow initially specialized in intricate black and white drawings on a black substrate, showcasing his unique reverse technique with white pencil. Driven by a creative impulse to explore different media, he ventured into sculpting in clay, casting in bronze, and painting in oils, achieving early success in both realms. His recent triumph in the sculpture category at the International Art Renewal Center Salon further underscores his artistic prowess.
