Noah Boulton, born March 14, 2000, in New York City, grew up in Brooklyn and pursued painting and comics from an early age. Accepted into the High School of Art and Design at 13, he focused on figure illustration, graduating with a perfect AP portfolio score. Later, he studied painting under Max Ginsberg and Leonid Gervits on a scholarship at the Art Students League of New York.

He earned a BFA in Painting and Drawing with a Minor in Art History from Purchase College, working at the Neuberger Museum and ChaShaMa while completing commissioned pieces. After graduation, he assisted artists like Jim Osman and Joshua Woods, supporting their practices both creatively and practically.

In 2023, after briefly living in paris through an art-for-rent exchange, Boulton returned to painting with a fresh objective: to paint not for aesthetics, but to question mark-making and explore painting as a contemplative act through his practice. In 2024, he received a scholarship at the Art Students League to further this approach under Ronnie Landfield.
