Dave Roholt

Born in Salt Lake City, UT

Lives & works in Lakewood, WA

 

I have been teaching art for about 20 years and now work as a Professor of Art at Pierce College located in Lakewood Washington. I am ever so grateful to live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest thanks to the love of my life Jenny Roholt, who is simply an amazing artist and art educator.

My background is in painting, drawing, and printmaking. I started this path proudly at a community college and earned an Associate of Arts from Salt Lake Community College. Then on to a BFA in drawing and painting from Utah State University and a wrapped it all up with a MFA in painting from Colorado State University.

Aside from art of course-I enjoy hiking, cross-country skiing, and I am an avid fly fisherman and fly tyer. I love all things Japanese and lived in the Northern Japan for two years as a missionary. I have more recently been fortunate to lead Pierce College students to Korea and Japan on short summer study tours. If you are interested in my artwork or art workshops please contact me and I am happy to connect with you.
