About The Artist

Hunter Wild was a video game designer and entrepreneur for the first few years of his adult life, before he spent several more to get his BA in philosophy from the University of North Texas in 2008. After a short break, during which he married his wonderful partner, Wild began to draw and paint prolifically, with no reason beyond an internal drive and no training or education in the subject. When this proved unrelenting, he enrolled for another degree, this time in Fine Art. Quickly disenchanted by this experience, he withdrew after his first semester of introductory classes and immediately took it upon himself to generate art through methods, theories, and philosophies of art untaught to him. Within the first few months of pursuing his focus of painting with watercolor on plastic, which usually consisted of 80-hour weeks and occasionally sleepless 40-hour painting sessions, he had a number of gallery shows under his belt and an unbridled hunger for artistic exploration. Still an autodidact, Wild pushes forward in a world of art of his own creation, guided by his own rules, and with an ambitious project.
