ABOUT ME

Alexander Patrick was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1960 to Walter and Josephine Smith. The sale of Alexander Patrick’s first work of art at the age of five became the stimulus for the insatiable passion for the world of art that he possesses. Encouraged by his mother, an artist herself, and tutored in art by his brother, John, until he reached fourteen, Alexander developed his one-of-a-kind artistic skills and imagination. At the age of six, Alexander set his sights on becoming a wildlife artist. After fifteen years of diligent work and effort, he was forced to abandon the industry and change gears to commercial art due to the overwhelming presence of discrimination in the industry. Simultaneously, he branched out to multiple directions including fashion photography, ceramic sculpture, eatable sculpture, origami, key line & paste-up, illustration, portraiture, editorial illustration, and cartooning. During this time, he also managed to create cell animation for Universal Studios and completed other projects for Candace Bergman, Barbara Streisand, Donna Summer, and John F. Kennedy Jr. Alexander co-founded Clean Earth and currently volunteers his time as the organization’s CEO. In recent years, Alexander has come full circle and returned to his original roots in naturalism. As the creator of W.R.A.P., and Artist Free The Children; Alexander has combined his business savvy and dynamic personality to coordinate a massive effort to begin to educate people due to the alarming rates that our world’s rainforests, and oceans are being destroyed. By allowing deforestation, over fishing, poor consumer habits and greedy corporate interest of our resources. By educating the public, particularly children, of the need we have for these great forests and reefs on a daily basis, he believes we can make an impact on each individual child and society as a whole.
