| Biography | graduated from The Art Institute of Boston, where he studied with Norman Baer and Walter Marks. He studied figure and landscape painting privately for 10 years with color master Robert Bliss.

Particularly influential is also San Diego artist John Asaro who gave Kilroy the knowledge of seeing light, color and the working understanding of sculptural form. |
