FRANK TROMBINO IS A BRIMMING RUCKSACK OF TRAVELING CURIOSITY, ADVENTURING SPIRIT, AND CREATIVE INGENUITY — A LIVING TESTAMENT TO THE DRIFTING WIND. WITH HIS SHARPENED SKILLS IN DRAWING, ILLUSTRATION, OIL PAINTING, STORYTELLING, AND DESIGN, FRANK’S WORK SERVES AS A TEMPORAL HITCHING POST; AN ODE TO THE THE DAYS OF OLD WHEN THINGS WERE BUILT AND DESIGNED WITH INTENTION AND LASTING PURPOSE TO ENDURE THE LONG HAUL .

BORN AND RAISED OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO, FRANK SOUGHT OUT CONNECTIVITY AND GROUNDING IN WHATEVER POCKETS OF NATURE HE COULD FIND. HOWEVER, THE MIDWEST COULD NEVER SATIATE THE LONGING OF HIS ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT. AVERSE TO THE CONFORMITIES AND SEDENTARY CONSCRIPTION OF THE SUBURBS, HE KNEW HE HAD TO CARVE HIS OWN PATH. AT THE AGE OF 18 WITH ONLY A SMALL BAG TO HIS NAME, HE LEFT THE ONLY LIFE HE HAD EVER KNOWN TO EXPLORE THE GRANDIOSITY OF THE AMERICAN WEST. AFTER A DECADE OF ROCK HOPPING IN THE SONORAN DESERT OF ARIZONA, HE RELOCATED TO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST FOR A RENEWED PERSPECTIVE. IT IS IN OREGON WHERE HIS TRUE ARTIST JOURNEY HAS TAKEN FLIGHT.

STEADFAST IN SINCERITY, INTEGRITY, AND TRUTH, HIS WORK IN DESIGN AND FINE ART HONORS THE STORIES THAT HIGHLIGHT THE DIGNITY OF MAN, THE BOUNDLESS MAJESTY OF NATURE, AND THE BEAUTY OF THE UNKNOWN THAT LIES BEYOND. HIS WORK EXPLORES THE THEMES AND LIMINAL SPACES BETWEEN THE SOFT & RUGGED, COMFORT & TRUTH, HOPE & DESPAIR, LOVE & LOSS, AND PAYS HOMAGE TO THE ELEMENTS THAT BECKON ADVENTURE AND DEMAND HONESTY, COURAGE, AND PERSEVERANCE. 

FRANK’S ART IS INSPIRED HEAVILY BY THE OPEN SKIES, THE INHERENT GRIT OF THE RUGGED AMERICAN WEST, THE OPEN ROAD LESS TRAVELED, THE SEEMINGLY LOST VESTIGE OF ROMANCE, AND THE OPEN-EYED WISDOM OF RENEWED PERSPECTIVE AS GLEANED THROUGH A TRAVELER’S LENS. WITH A LEATHER-BOUND JOURNAL., PENCIL, AND CAMERA IN TOW, HIS GAZE IS FERVENTLY SET TO THE HORIZON IN ORDER TO RECEIVE, TRANSPOSE, AND SHARE IN ORDER TO CONNECT WITH AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS ON THEIR WHISTFUL JOURNEY.

FRANK IS CURRENTLY BASED OUT OF A STUDIO IN BEND, OREGON. HOWEVER, THE WIND IS ALWAYS DRIFTING, AND THE OPEN ROAD FOREVER AWAITS..
