Drew Macias went to community college, where he did not study art, but drew often in class. Excelling in baseball, he was selected by the San Diego Padres in the 2002 first player draft and made his way through the minor leagues until he made his major-league debut in 2007. After retiring from the game in 2012, Macias turned to another childhood dream and pursued acting. He worked on multiple commercials, movies, and television shows—even guest starring on Oprah Winfrey’s Cherish the Day. Macias has learned many lessons that he now channels into his art. Whether it’s the hard work, love, and dedication he learned from baseball, or the raw emotions and presentness he developed as an actor, the life he has lived is poured into his career as a fine artist.
