Dennis Allen Meyer was born in Marshfield, Wisconsin in 1945. He has a BFA from St. Norbert College in West DePere, Wisconsin and a MFA from Ohio University. Meyer stated the following in an interview with the Canton Repository in 1975: “Nature, biology and growing things always held a great fascination for me. I’m always after new ways of creating space in a work, but different kinds of space-shallow, deep etc.” Graphite as a medium has always been important to Meyers. This is confirmed in the interview when he said “I thought what if I get the intimacy of a small drawing but the scale of a large painting? Drawings are an end in themselves and not a preliminary for a painting or sculpture. Drawing is a personal expression.”
