Dennis John Ashbaugh is an internationally acclaimed American painter and artist who lives and works in New York City.
He was the first artist to employ DNA marking patterns in paintings, in his 1992 work Designer Gene. Ashbaugh’s use of light and color in his large scale paintings of autoradiographs have drawn comparison to Mark Rothko.
He is the longtime companion of author Alexandra Penney and has been characterized by the New York Times as a “charismatic exâ€surfer whose address book can probably hold its own against that of the most aggressive jet set typeâ€.
