Lance Williams is a full time artist born and raised in Logan, Utah. His passion for art has always existed since childhood but has recently been reborn. He has always had a love for nature, design, and art. He did take art lessons when he was in his youth, and into high school. His style of art is raw, unique, and comes directly from how his eye for art has been shaped throughout his life. He is colorblind. His colorblindness is a weakness, but he has been trying to gain more knowledge about the nature of color and how colors interact in light and shadow.
Lance earned a degree from Utah State University in Business Management and Entrepreneurship. Lance spent some time as a golf professional at a local club and then moved into working 15 years in the mortgage industry.
In 2014, Lance and his wife, Amy, committed to living a more creative life. It has been a lot of curious exploration and time to prepare for a lifestyle that they feel is rewarding.
Lance was influenced by his parents that always encouraged him to express himself through art. His high school art teacher, Zan Burningham also had an impact on his art. She was an art teacher that allowed any possible boundaries to be lifted. She allowed Lance to open his mind in order to create what he thought was good design and also to trust his own ideas and techniques. Last, but far from least, is his wife Amy. She continually encourages and supports his art.
Lance's goal as an artist is to continue to make art fun and learn as much as he can. He is dedicated to working, practicing, and always learning more about the craft of oil painting.
