Presley Taylen
Born and raised in the heart of West Virginia, Presley Taylen explores the whimsical and strange with their illustrative and comic works. From horror short stories to traditional ink pieces, Taylen has been creating their whole life, and growing up in Appalachia has only served to nurture and strengthen their artistic and storytelling abilities. After graduating from Columbus College of Art and Design in Spring 2023, Taylen came back home to the mountains and currently resides in Thomas as Bloom’s 2024 artist-in-residence.
