Welcome

You’ve stumbled upon the website for one (1) of earth’s 7.8 billion (!!) human inhabitants. This particular human happens to be a multi-disciplinary artist: a writer, visual artist, musician, and more.

Wait, so who is this guy?

Jamey Paul Baumgardt (he/him) is a practicing artist and proud Pacific Northwest native, born and raised near Seattle, Washington. He studied literature and creative writing in junior college, received his BFA in painting and drawing from the University of Washington and his MFA in creative writing from UNR Lake Tahoe. He lives in Boise, Idaho with his husband and their Australian shepherd, Indie, and spends his free time painting in his art studio or tapping away on his laptop writing his next novel.
