Born in New York City in 1964, art took hold of Sebastian Alterera at a young age. Accompanying his mother to sell her sculptures on sidewalks and in galleries, he was motivated to start sketching. After moving to San Francisco, he found inspiration in the area’s architecture, mountains and ocean. His art began to reflect the influence of nature on the human mind. With a BFA from the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, FL , and an MFA from the prestigious Savannah College of Art and Design, he went on to study in Naples, Italy. His art has continued to flourish, inspired by his fine art education and the culture and heritage of his travels.
