Bryce Chisholm is a blue collar, home town boy whose dynamic work has the street savvy and appeal of outsider art. Chisholm’s creative methodical approach to process,
bold splashes (and drips) of color on all surfaces in mixed media; his embrace of the rebel and the irreverent and his devotion to beauty, make him an important artist for our times, distinguishing his work as uniquely collectible.
