"Charles J. Dwyer, Jr. was born in 1961. A Wisconsin native, Dwyer
graduated from the Milwaukee School of Art, where he studied fine arts,
painting and printmaking.
Dwyer has shown his work in a variety of galleries across the U.S.A.
In the Spring of 1992 the artist's growing reputation was underlined when his first New York exhibition sold out.
Those who view Dwyer's art are captivated by the combination of the
female form with autobiographical elements or hidden images. In many of
the works, Dwyer combines hand-written script with the images. Working
in mixed media for both his limited edition prints and unique works of
art, the artist builds up a tactile surface. Style and technique enhance
each other to present a romantic form of his very personal
expressionism.
Commissioned to create the official poster for Chicago's ARTEXPO '93
Dwyer has continued to explore our contemporary mores and milieu with
his painting entitled The Three Graces of Chicago. Reinterpreting a
classical theme, the artist created an image that captured the dynamics
and history of the city.
In addition to his own art, Dwyer has been involved with a decorative
arts and restoration studio, where he recreates murals in various
landmark buildings.
His real love, however, remains his own work. As the artist once noted, I
desire to create an art that is, at once visually exciting and
thought-provoking." [via]
