About Me
Bill Cormalis Jr. is a self taught artist out of Los Angeles Ca. Bill started drawing at an early age, everything from animals to Star Wars battle scenes. In his formidable years, being a skateboarder opened his eyes to an entirely different realm of creativity. With exposure from the pages of skate magazines, the influence of artist Jim Phillips, and his brightly colored, detailed graphics for Santa Cruz , to the random creativity of Vision pro/ artist Mark Gonzalez, began to rub off on Bill. He began to experiment with painting, doing grip tape art, and making stencils. Growing up in a musical family, music is also a major influence, and subject in many of his artworks. The work of Picasso, Van Gogh, Stuart Davis, James Castle, Klee and Rembrandt, inspire the diverse nature of Bills work, from creating Collages and Assemblages, to painting Portraits. He has participated in local festivals and various group shows throughout Los Angeles, Orange County and San Bernardino County. Bill was a Featured Artist at the "Weapons of Mainstream Destruction" show at the Zeem Haven, located in The Downtown Pomona Arts District, July 2008.
