тимоти чапман (1956)
Timothy Chapman is an American wildlife artist living and working in Phoenix, Arizona.
He holds bachelor's degrees in biology (Occidental College) and printmaking (Arizona State University), and a master's degree in printmaking (Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville). And now he works at the Cattletrack Art Complex and calls his work "invented natural history."
Timothy Chapman has two passions in life - animals and art. He paints wild, striking images of animals, such as flying zebras and giraffes with floral patterns. Finding charm in whimsical ideas is what made Chapman an artist, and it's what he's known for today. He admires the balance between magical realism and the quiet surrealism of Frida Kahlo. And then there are the natural history illustrators, often anonymous, who took creative liberties with their drawings.
