Kimon Laghi was born in 1871 in the Greek city of Serres, at that time under the control of the Ottoman Empire.

Louis Escobedo, 1952 | Colorist painter

He began his painting career at age 6 when he won the best of show in his elementary school in Sweetwater Texas.

In 1974, after graduation from college he began his career as an artist honing his talents to become a freelance illustrator in Texas.
