  Zae was born in Pasadena , California in 1968 to a family of artists. As a 3rd generation artist, Zae was encouraged at a young age to pursue and develop his creative talents. Zae’s creative pursuits were eclectic. A self taught musician who concentrated on guitar since age four, video, television, filmmaker and editor, architect and builder of his own home, welder of sculpture and passionate painter. Drawing and painting throughout childhood and school, Zae’s family and teachers recognized his natural acceleration in the arts.
          Capable of many artistic expressions, Zae chose abstract to communicate his vision. Zae’s abstracts emit emotional reactions from the observer. The combination of  color and edgy composition evoke alluring qualities that speak to the viewer. One is drawn to the raw energy emitted through each painting. Energy transferred from artist to art. Zae’s art is driven by personal emotion, life experience and even dreams. He feels a sense of elation and release during the creative process. As soon as he completes a painting he is anxious to start another artistic endeavor. He is on a mission of art.
          Zae is personally endorsed by Lanier Graham-published art historian and former curator of the Museum of Modern Art , The Norton Simon Museum, The DeYoung Museum and the National Gallery in Canberra , Australia . Lanier Graham considers Zae to be a “remarkable artist.”
His work has sold to associates at Columbia and Vanderbilt Universities , GE Capital,  O at Home  magazine, and is publicly displayed nationwide in doctor’s offices, architectural, and law firms. Zae is gallery represented and supported in his local community including several acquisitions made by The Bank of Atlanta. Fine art enthusiasts will find Zae’s art inspirational, enlightening and thought provoking as have numerous collectors worldwide . Zae’s art is in private collections in France , Italy , Canada and across the United States from New York to California . The support and appreciation of Zae’s art he feels is his greatest professional achievement.
          Zae currently resides in Atlanta , Georgia with his wife Jennifer, a fellow artist and designer, and their two children. He continues to paint daily.
