His work has hung in numerous group and individual shows From Boston to LA. A "Boston Now" finalist, his art has been featured on the NBC Today Show and been a subject of note in the New York Times, Graphic Design USA, the Christian Science Monitor, North Shore Sunday and the Boston Globe.

Buckley attended the Vesper George School of Art, The School of The Museum of Fine Arts and Harvard University. A former Department Chair at the New England School of Art, he also served on the faculty at the University of New Hampshire teaching in a program he helped design and administer.
