June GomezJune Gomez is a native Californian. Her artistic talents were nurtured from an incredibly young age. Long road trips were taken with her sketchbook in hand. The cloud formations outside the station wagon window were her first creative inspirations. Son, June's youthful talents became evident to both her family and teachers. Art and creative projects became her favorite subject in elementary as well as secondary school.

There she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in illustration. Today, her professional mural work is prominently displayed in children's rooms, dental offices and commercial spaces around the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
