April Art Crush: Chad Schoonmaker

My art crush for April is a wonderful artist and SUCH a fun Insta friend: Chad Schoonmaker! Chad is so talented, extremely cool, and the first man-art-crush on the blog... Hooray!

Chad is an artist and photographer from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He loves rye whiskey, music, his faith, and any challenge or endeavor. He has a beautiful family- including the most precious child- and a great art business. His paintings are mostly abstracts, and are inspired by so many things: trips to the antique village, morning coffee over Instagram, and music of all types, just to name a few. 

                                                                           Ummm, check out Sam Schoonmaker.... and the painting he's hanging out with! What studs!

Chad's paintings are so peaceful, but so vibrant and thoughtful. How does he do it!? I love everything he does.

(Answer: talent)

Chad sells originals and prints, but he also loves to work closely with clients on commissions and custom projects. He does ship, and he is so easy to work with! (Below-- my very own print!)
