Kevin Chupik
Kevin Chupik has been a professional exhibiting artist for over 25 years. While living throughout the American Southwest, he has cultivated a unique artistic aesthetic. He actively seeks juxtapositions of traditional western imagery elements with those of modernity. Sometimes he creates striped color contrails, which activate bucking bronc riders on wood rounds in pop art like treatments. Other times his cowboy figures are actors trapped in a surreal narrative about time and place, while engaged in an urbane setting. Whatever the construct employed, his paintings seek to invite the viewer to momentarily consider the improbable as possible. He holds a Masters in Painting and Drawing from The University of Colorado at Boulder and BFA from Texas Christian University.
