Artist’s Statement: I am very fortunate. I have always been in the arts. Learning the notes on the piano from my grandmother who was a piano teacher.

My artworks are all a result of these processes. *** Hank Keneally studied music and photography at Arizona State University, often staying in the dark room overnight…
