Trent Tomengo teaches humanities at Seminole State College. His intelligent, provocative, and finely crafted paintings are already well known in Central Florida, where he has been featured in selected solo and group exhibitions. His work is primarily concerned with exploring ways of conveying the universality of all human beings. Keenly aware of the divides human beings create among themselves, oftentimes with disastrous consequences, Tomengo uses his work to preach tolerance, acceptance, and mutual understanding.
