Cary Vallery discovered his artistic talent at the young age of five and has been entirely self-taught ever since. His path has been shaped by over 13 years of service in the Army National Guard and Active Duty Army, where he served as a combat medic. Following his military career, Cary pursued his passion for art as a freelance commercial artist and sign painter, blending creativity with craftsmanship. His work reflects a deep connection to both his personal experiences and the world around him.

Cary now lives in East Texas with his wife, where they run a small animal rescue sanctuary on 4.5 acres. Together, they care for 36 cats and 3 dogs, providing a safe haven for animals in need. His current focus is on his family, rescue animals, and continuing to express himself through his art.
