Born in New York City and residing in Sagaponack on Long Island, New York as well as Norway, Maine, Vito DeVito lives with wife Laurie, daughter Emma Ann and son Drew. A graduate of Seton Hall University, Mr. DeVito studied extensively throughout the US and Europe. Today, he is a successful artist and sculptor, as well as a dedicated conservationist. Seasonally the DeVito Family travel to their Norway, Maine home where Mr. DeVito is constantly inspired by the state's endless beauty. There are three international groups he is painiting for currently. They are: Ducks Unlimited, Safari Club International, and The International Game Fish Association. Ducks Unlimited has requested Mr. DeVito to create a new painting every year from 1994-2003. Recently, he completed his tenth painting for Ducks Unlimited and his work is in demand among conservation, fishing and environmental organizations throughout the U.S. This past year, he has worked with Master PrintMaker, and innovator of the Solarplate method of etching, Dan Welden, and it has opened new doors for Mr. DeVito's talents in the Graphic field. Rounding out the artist's commissions list are requests for life-size busts, to be cast in bronze (Ducks Unlimited has just commissioned Mr. DeVito for a bronze sculpture in 2004), and portrait work in all mediums.
