"Chris Wilson was born in 1984. Early on Chris developed a deep fascination for both the visual arts as well as sleight of hand, dedicating his time equally among the two. Spending his teens drawing, studying sleight of hand and listening to post-hardcore/ experimental rock.
His influences, which range from cult films of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s to the paintings of Francis Bacon, to post modern literature, eventually landed him in a style distinctly his own – mysterious, direct, and strangely quirky.
In 2009 he earned a BFA from the Character Animation program at Disney’s, Cal Arts. While at Cal Arts he studied drawing with E. Michael Mitchell and Corny Cole III. Officially earning a Princess Grace Award nomination for his 3 minute short film, “Volta”.
Currently, Chris lives and works in San Diego, CA. Where he is working on his next project, “Monsters Are Waiting”."
