WHO ARE YOU, WHERE ARE YOU FROM, & WHAT DO YOU DO? Chadwick Tolley
I live in Evans, GA and teach printmaking and illustration at Augusta University.
DESCRIBE YOUR PROCESS. My work is a combination of drawing and digital processes. I primarily work in screen printing and risograph.
WHAT INSPIRES YOU? Life experiences inspire me to try out different things in my sketchbook and that’s usually how I start making my images.
FUN FACT ABOUT YOU. I have a dog named Humphrey and three kids.
FAVORITE THING ABOUT DOWNTOWN AUGUSTA. Beautiful location on the Savannah River and a supportive, tight-knit creative community.
WHY DO YOU LOVE TO DESIGN, CREATE + MAKE? I gotta make art, it makes me happy. It’s like a magic trick, you conjure up images that sometimes surprise and delight yourself and others.
