THE ARTIST AND THE PROCESS

Wallace Colvard is a fine artist working in multiple disciplines and media. His work is expressed through painting and prints, digital collage and photography.

With an educational background in both graphic design and computer science at North Carolina State University he worked as a digital commercial artist for over 40 years in the fields of textile print design, television graphic design and art direction, film animation and live action visual effects. He contributed his visual style to many major companies, such as MTV, VH1, NBC (where he won seven Emmys), CBS, Disney, DreamWorks, and Sony Pictures Animation.

Now living in the desert, he is free to pursue his own goals, his own vision free of commercial restraints. In his work he uses a number of mathematical, logical and layering techniques to create works that make the eye dance and the mind dream, based on his world travel images, memories, creative imagination and life experiences.

Individual works are commonly the product of several thousand lines of code combined with printing and painting techniques. These are all unique pieces. No piece in a color palette or size will ever be duplicated except as an Artists Proof.
