Meet Hugh DeWitte
Hugh earned a BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute with a major in design and a minor in sculpture. He studied graphic design under Victor Papanek, one of the twentieth century's most influential pioneers of social and ecological design. Hugh's work uses line, color, and shape to express the spirit and nature of our environment, with collections exploring abstract interpretations of the land we live on.
