Lorenzo Chavez biography

Lorenzo Chavez was born and raised in the southern most point of the Rockies in New Mexico. His first inspirations and foundation as a young artist were formed by the local landscape and the art history in New Mexico. Lorenzo now makes his home in Parker, Colorado and uses this location as a base to travel and paint the American West and Southwest.

Through the years, while searching for subject matter, he realized there are many similarities throughout the Rockies. The deep blue of the vaulting sky, majestic cloud formations, rabbit brush, chamisa, pinon, pine and juniper, the willows that line the stream banks, the granite in the mountain ranges, aspens and the endless seas of grasses are continuing inspirations.

Using pastel and oil mediums, his hope is to carry on the art traditions of American painters such as the Taos Society of Artists and the American Impressionists.

Lorenzo Chavez GPS Great Painting Spots map
GPS (Great Painting Spots):
“I have a Colorado map I have kept with highlights and markings of back roads and painting spots I have explored and painted in the last 35 years.
This map is my GPS. Colorado has been a major inspiration and has led to a great outpouring of landscape paintings. These paintings have been created both on location and in the studio from numerous experiences and many location studies.
I have explored most major and minor roads in western Colorado while out traveling and looking for inspiration. I see from my highlighted roads on the GPS map that I have many eastern Colorado roads still to explore.
My motivation is endless being out in nature during all the seasons. Setting up an easel to study the light and atmosphere never fails to be an educational as well as an inspirational experience.
I love to return to my favorite locations time and time again. They never fail to stir my blood and uplift me. It has been a joy to share many painting trips with artists, friends and family.
My GPS map is well worn and loved. I thank God for the experiences and for all the incredible beauty we are all blessed with.” Lorenzo Chavez
