ART IS THE ANSWER 

PURCHASE ART FOR ANYONE THROUGH THE STORE OR A CUSTOM ORDER. NO PERSON IS CAPABLE OF AVOIDING THE IMPACT OF ART SINCE ART INSPIRES US FROM WITHIN.

CHRIS GROCHOLSKI - ART HAS BEEN A CENTRAL PART OF MY LIFE SINCE I REMEMBER THE CONSCIOUS SELF. AT THE AGE 13 MY FIRST FORMAL PAINTING LESSONS WERE UNDER PROFESSOR CHASE DECKER AT J. SARGEANT REYNOLDS. IN 2007 I WAS AWARDED 1ST PRIZE FOR PAINTING AT THE ANNUAL J. SARGEANT REYNOLDS SHOW.   

I exhibit my work annually at Art in the Park here in Richmond Virginia.

In December 2013, I will be the Artist of the Month and am showing 26 works at the Virginia Eye Institute!

"BEING LEFT IN LONG HOURS OF ISOLATION TO PUSH PAINT AROUND ON A CANVAS IS MY DAILY DOSE OF SUCCULENCE"

ART TO ME IS CHASING A VISION BUT NEVER ABSOLUTELY CAPTURING BUT A MEAR SMIDGEON OF THE TRUE BEING. THROUGH THAT IMAGE WE CAN INDUCE WHAT MAY BE BUT NEVER TRULY KNOW - THE JOY OF GRASPING WHAT IS THERE BUT THE TORMENT OF LOSING WHAT COULD BE.  THEREFORE AN ARTIST IS A HOPELESS ROMANTIC - ALWAYS CHASING EVERCHANGING NATURE.
