Michael Chomick, born November 30th, 1957, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada now a contemporary artist living in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Chomick, an award winning visual artist, has been producing works since September 1986 in a variety of mediums, i.e.: printmaking; mixed media clay sculptures; small to mural-sized expressive figurative oil paintings; ink or graphite drawings; mixed media constructions.

Prior to the September 1986 beginnings of his fine art direction, he had embarked on a 11 year career as commercial artist. Dissatisfied with the previous vocation he changed directions and emmersed himself in to the world of fine art, which continues to this day.

Chomick's works have been exhibited both nationally and internationally during his 25+ years and counting tenure as a contemporary artist.

His philosphy is: The most important thing as an artist is...to be relevant to the society we are living in. With that as his driving inspiration the works, especially the mixed media constructions, are emotionally charged, and intended to create a dialogue with the viewer.

For him, one of the purposes of art is to move cultures forward by bringing an awareness to the varied societal experiences that are a part of every individual lives, to help them to gain a better understanding of what is the human condition.
