Impact Arts Gallery > Chad Wallace
Chad Wallace graduated from Syracuse University in 1997 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. He majored in illustration and upon graduating was awarded the “Outstanding Senior Illustrator Award” He has since been published in several children’s books including such titles as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow of the Poetry For Young People Series, Pass The Energy Please!, and Earthday Birthday. Wallace has displayed at the Howland Center in Beacon N.Y., the Rye Nature Center, and the Society of Illustrators N.Y where he holds membership. His work has appeared in the Artists’ Magazine and four of his paintings were available for viewing at the 2002 Art Expo in New York.
Chad spends the majority of his time in his Westchester New York studio specializing in art inspired by animals and nature. He also draws from his experiences in Bear Mountain where he has a cabin by a lake. Chad enjoys hiking and the outdoors and has a deep love of the environment and the animals therein. His paintings typically portray animals in their natural settings and invite the viewer to “experience” the world from a different perspective. Bright colors and “ground level” angles create a mood in which creatures big and small can be appreciated. His subjects often contain “human-like” emotions and can be interpreted as metaphors for life.
When Chad is not in his studio he enjoys music festivals, playing guitar, and participates on a men’s league ice hockey team. Chad wishes to become the author and illustrator his own picture books and share his unique painting style.
