"I’m pretty slow with my process and oil painting kind of lends itself to that pace," he said.
McCauley lives with paralysis due to an injury he sustained while diving into a swimming pool.
"Pre-injury, I was a skateboarder, snowboarder, surfer, and these things were taken away from me. You either relearn and adapt to how to do these things, or you find creative outlets," McCauley said.
McCauley says his subject matter revolves around everyday life and things he encounters living with a disability.
