Biography

Apexer was born in San Francisco, California in 1978. He is a third generation San Franciscan. He is Latino and African-American.[2]

Apexer studied classical art techniques, architecture, graphic design, and art history while trying to develop his own artistic identity. Apexer credits the San Francisco-based community organization, Precita Eyes with guiding him to finding his own artist voice.[2] “If I’m painting from my imagination, I’m representing everybody,” said APEX. “I’m not representing one person. Or one race.”[2]
