“Is this really what I want to do for the rest of my life?”
When Frank Serrano asked himself in that question in the early ‘90s, his immediate answer was, “No.” Already a successful commercial artist, he was getting bored and was finding the lure of fine art becoming increasingly strong. Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Serrano had long been interested in art, drawing animals and cartoons whenever he wasn’t outside riding his bike or climbing trees.
