Gallery artist Marc Anderson was born and raised in central Wisconsin in the Rockwellian town of Wild Rose. He has three brothers and no sisters, much to his mother’s chagrin. Marc’s parents were abundantly supportive of his and his brothers’ endeavors, creative or otherwise.

Marc began working as a professional artist while studying illustration at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Firstly, as a caricature artist at a local amusement park. Secondly, as a freelance illustrator for various clients and publications.
