Born in New Jersey, Jeffrey Starr moved to Littleton, CO, in 1973. Mainly self-taught, he enrolled in only one semester of college before deciding to dedicate his time solely to his painting career. He became a well-known artist in Denver during the 1980s, known for fantastical works in both painting and sculpture that often combine realistic and surreal elements. He was featured in the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver’s 2003 biennial and his work has been shown at the Denver Art Museum and a number of galleries. Starr continues to produce work in New York, where he now resides.
