Biography

Apexer was born in San Francisco, California, in 1978. He is a third-generation San Franciscan. He is Latino and African-American.

Apexer studied classical art techniques, architecture, graphic design, and art history while developing his own artistic identity. Apexer credits the San Francisco-based community organization Precita Eyes with guiding him to find his own artistic voice. “If I’m painting from my imagination, I’m representing everybody,” said APEX. “I’m not representing one person. Or one race.”
