Seth Treanor is a Cleveland local artist, originally born in Elyria. At a young age, he and his family moved to Parma where he grew up for the vast majority of his life. Seth was constantly drawing, sketching, and creating. Luckily, his family had some artistic background and always encouraged him to follow this passion. In high school, he played a myriad of sports and was Editor of the school yearbook. He even got to skip Art II, straight into developing his own curriculum. From there, he went to Kent State University to study Visual Communication Design. Although Seth did not graduate, he learned valuable skills to support his dreams of being an artist.
After leaving Kent, he followed a creative-inspired passion for the culinary arts, continuing to develop the duct tape concept the entire way. He now ironically again lives in Kent with his girlfriend and step children. Embracing the stay-at-home dad and artist lifestyle, he has been pushing further into the world of being a creative force in the Cleveland art scene. He hopes to keep pushing the limits of adhesive collage and further develop the concepts he has worked on for so long.

The idea originated from a random thought of, “What if duct tape replaced, the stroke of a brush, the line of a pen, or the screen of a print?”. From that point on Seth explored the challenging medium, starting from a “mosaic style” and eventually evolving to more flat planes that resemble a kind of “build your own sticker”. He attributes this idea to taking concepts from illustrative collage, Photoshop, and printmaking classes that he was taking at the time at Kent State University. Once the seed sprouted, it continued to grow for an entire decade, evolving and perfecting the technique as he went.
