His digital art has been on display at art galleries, juried art exhibitions and live events across Ohio. His work in galleries and exhibitions has been subject of several awards including his body of work "Phase 3 Continuum" displayed at The Coburn Gallery, which won best in digital art and the people's choice award.

Early Work
Exhibition juror Kate Shannon, assistant professor of art at Ohio State University-Mansfield Campus, originally selected Lance's art for inclusion in a local gallery, observing his "inspirations drawn from mass media and advertising to create lively digital landscapes", which led to the artist's discovery and further attention of Roy G Biv Gallery, Columbus, Ohio. Early works were focused on environmental awareness, animal rights, and an analysis of innate human psychology & states of being. Parallels between human psychology and machine learning became a major theme throughout his work exhibited at The Coburn Gallery.
