Tanzi was born on a temperate winter morning sometime in the nineties, and almost immediately started drawing. His parents REALLY wanted to just get out of the hospital but Tanzi just kept drawing.

Almost 23 years later, things are running much more smoothly.

In 2012, Tanzi graduated from Montserrat College of art with his BFA in Illustration and candidacy for Art Education Licensure.

By 2013, he completed his Student-Teaching duties and acquired his Art Education Licensure, specializing in teaching High School Students. The only thing better than painting is teaching others to enjoy painting.

Tanzi's current projects include searching for teaching opportunities, obtainting his Master of Fine Arts Degree, and of course building up his portfolio in order to market himself as an artist and an illustrator (did you know he has his own website?)

On this website you will find Portraits, Editorial Illustrations, some quirky character sketches, and even a series! Also, visit the links page if you want to buy prints or original pieces!
