VINCE PACKARD BIO

When he was born, his dad Raymond was teaching art deep in the Appalachian
eastern Kentucky county of Pike, and his mom, Ellen, was a beautiful ballet
dancer refugee from Berlin Germany.
    Interest in the arts began with films such as =B3Jason and the Argonauts=B2=
,
=B3Alice=B2 by  Jan Svankmejer and the shorts of the Brothers Quay.  His dad ha=
d
an an art gallery in Akron while he was growing up and here he became
exposed to many different styles of art and design.  His first graphic
experience occurred in the late 1970=B9s when he published his own magazine
titled, Slam Magazine.  Slam included poetry, illustration, photography, an=
d
critical reviews as well as a listing of alternative music and art that was
international in scope.  Vince was responsible for design and layout of 18
issues.  He learned how to tattoo in the 1980=B9s and supported himself
drawing and designing throughout the 1990=B9s.  His passion for art allows hi=
m
to explore many different mediums including marionettes.
    He first started working with Standing Rock Cultural Arts in the Fall o=
f
2002 after he was featured at a gallery exhibition.   He has been designing
posters, fliers, programs, and signs for them ever since.  Recently,  he
joined The Parade in the Circle Festival, a multi-cultural art parade held
annually at Case Western Reserve University Circle in Cleveland.  Here, he
learned to construct large scale puppetry.  Stiltwalking, mask making, and
back pack framework puppets were all skills he learned through three months
of intensive workshops.

A vast library of Vince=B9s work can be found at www.cannibol.com.
