Having lived locally in the twin cities his entire life, Skip has exhibited in multiple shows, both in St. Paul and Minneapolis. Places that Skip has shown at include the College of Visual Arts, Cal Surf, Barfly, 1419, and the Lyric Living Building. Two highlights in Skip’s artistic career include winning first place in a student design competition hosted by Susan I.
