Roger Leege
Roger Leege started out as a painter, printmaker, and analog photographer and earned BA and MA degrees in Visual Arts from Goddard College. Following post-grad study in computer science, Roger became an early adopter and evangelist for digital art and artists' tools. Working mainly in montage with generous helpings of wacom paint, he draws on his past as a lawn boy, meat cutter, storyteller, trucker, EMT, embalmer’s assistant, trim carpenter, bass player, house painter, journalist, dissident, videographer, educator, computer scientist, and somewhat atypical Florida man. The literary arts strongly inform his visual art practice; his art owes as much to Pynchon, Borges, and Barthelme as it does to Arbus, Cartier-Bresson, and Uelsmann.
