About Jeffie
Jeffie Brewer grew up in rural East Texas. As the son of eccentric junkyard owners, he learned to spot beauty in the mundane, developed an array of industrial skills and discovered a knack for drawing.
Those early revelations and combined skills have translated into a rewarding career as a professor and an an artist, and have earned him placement in public and private art collections, museums and galleries across the country.
