Kevin M. Haller      Born September 11, 1960

Kevin is a life-long resident of Missouri.  He was born and resides in Saint Louis, but his most significant influences were from rural Missouri.  He spent much of his youth on a family farm in the small town of Freeburg.  In that rural setting, Kevin developed a fondness for nature, fishing, hunting, and wildlife.  These interests led Kevin to painting.  In years past, fishing and hunting magazines routinely placed wildlife art on their front covers.  Kevin was captivated by these images and wanted to copy and hang them in his room.  Towards this goal, he persuaded his parents to purchase his first paint set. 

His initial attempts at painting were fairly successful and were highly praised by his family.  Empowered by this encouragement, he continued painting through his teens. 
In early adulthood, he focused on establishing a career in computers, and it left little time for art.  He did not stray from art long, however.  In his late twenties, he rediscovered his passion for art, and he has been painting steadily ever since.
