J. W. Arzeta is a Chicago native, inspired by the crowds and artistry of the city. At a young age he was taken to a southern-coastal village by the Pacific Ocean where he grew up surrounded by beaches, mountains and a world that influenced his mind. He moved back to the Chicagoland area as a teenager and was soon inspired by the classic works of writers and painters of the roaring twenties and the lost generation of artists, particularly, the also Chicagoland native Ernest Hemingway.

He has a poetry book published, "(six words)" which you can purchase via the link provided.
