Chase Langford has invented a distinctive visual language that is grounded in the natural and built environment while embarking into uncharted territory. His impactful depictions recall maps and aerial photography of sea coasts, mountains, farmland and cities through a calculated execution and highly refined draftsmanship.
Just as the West Coast Abstract Expressionists (1940 to 1970) found California’s striking landscape fertile ground, so does Langford as he draws upon his geographic environs both near and far.
Through his cartographic mastery, Langford contorts and synthesizes geographic elements, bringing forth paintings that are mysteriously familiar yet surprisingly unconventional. They challenge conventions of geography and landscapes, offering invigorating visions of space and place that transcend any specific locale, leading us to an exhilarating emotional experience.
Chase Langford is represented by galleries in: Seattle, Napa Valley, Healdsburg, Dallas, Maui, and Martha's Vineyard. His studio is in Cathedral City, CA near Palm Springs. (Los Angeles studio shown in this video)
Big thanks to Walter Pawluk Productions for filming, editing and co-directing.
Chase Langford's paintings have been widely shown at one-person and group exhibitions in Los Angeles, New York City, Washington DC, Montreal, Palo Alto, Las Vegas, Long Beach, Napa Valley, Seattle, Dallas, Toronto and Palm Springs and included many corporate/public collections (often site specific commissions) such as Long Beach Musuem of Art, Keck School of Medicine at USC, Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, Star City in Sydney, Australia, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Monique Lhuillier, Inc., Caesar’s Palace, Dykema Grossett LLP, Sidley Austin LLP, Cohen & Lord, Meacham Oppenheimer, Inc., UBS, Nordstrom and Park Hyatt Aviara. He is in private collections in North America, Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, and Australia. Also in the private collections of Magic Johnson and the Saudi Royal Family.
What a sweetheart giving us all this valuable information in a no-frills video for free!
Julie -- Glad it was helpful! It was fun to do.
I agree. The information is valuable and I will definitely us them.
I have been a art professor for many years and this gives some of the best studio practices advice out there. Thank you for sharing.
wow, this is truly a great compliment coming from you! thank you. I could never find a video like this so I made one myself. There's another similar video here on my channel.
I am a CZcams 'studio tour' junkie and this is hands down, one of my favourites.
thanks so much! another video coming in a couple weeks.
I can't believe how much content you covered in such a short span!
I especially appreciate the hanging hardware portion of your video - I'm a custom framer and will definitely be utilizing your tips whenever possible.
Lindsay -- that's great.
I can’t thank you enough, Chase! I am definitely taking your advice to heart and applying a lot of it to my studio. “Invaluable” is my word today and that is what you are for your sharing, caring, creative spirit. Thank you!
I recently began my creative journey so as not to go bonkers during the pandemic and turned one of our spare bedrooms in to a nice studio for myself and your tips are so helpful! Your work is just amazing and so unique!
Jennifer -- That is awesome! Glad you did that.
So generous with information. The world needs more people like you Sir Chase!
thank you! nice of you to say that.
Love your sense of organization, and the ingenious tips and solutions made from household items! Thanks, Chase!
Thank you for wonderful tips and generous sharing of your love for art!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the great tips. I especially appreciated your idea of putting a thumbprint on the back of your work. Years ago one of my former professors, Karl Kasten, had been asked by one of his collectors to help authenticate some Jackson Pollock paintings on chipboard that he had been offered at a good price. I begged Karl to avoid the task as Pollock is possibly the most counterfeited artist of all time, and instead I was dragged in to assist. We were able to verify two out of the several paintings in the group partly by stray fingerprints that matched those found in Pollock's studio, but it seemed the seller had gotten greedy and added several fakes to his offering - The chipboard used was not available during Pollocks lifetime. I had returned to Los Angeles when the drama in the Bay Area played out, but in the end Prof. Kasten retained his good reputation. For me it was a frightening situation but even at 91 years of age Karl was sharp and fearless.
Thanks for sharing. I feel adding the stamp and fingerprint helps authentication in the future. Have you seen the British show "Fake or Fortune"? Check it out.
Haven’t heard of it and will check it out. Are you familiar with Han van Meegeren? He painted excellent forgeries and had to create one during his trial for being a Nazi collaborator to prove the Vermeer he’d traded to Herman Göring was actually one of his fakes.
This is a great story!
Love seeing this!
Thank you so much... I have been painting for as long as I can remember, and your advice has opened my eyes to a lot of things I have been doing wrong and a few things doing right.
I am in my second apartment studio which is a loft I am so happy and I am hoping better for me to succeed more now than before. With your advice, I will elevate my work. Thank you again.
Stephina -- Wonderful!
I really enjoyed watching, you created a video that manages to be both conversational and yet goes straight to the point(s), thank you!
Wow, the production quality, thought, and care put into this video really shows!!! So grateful that you have taken time to make this and share your knowledge with the world!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! Keep the informative videos coming! :) Especially liked the tips around making photographs in multiple angles and also a short video.
Would like to see more information on the behind the scenes stuff, like finances / keeping your administration in order / what to document, etc.
Galleries and collectors appreciate lots of images that help them get a better look at a painting that isn't available for them to see locally. My galleries will pass on these images to clients to help them decide if they want to acquire the work. Doing a short video is also super helpful. Be super attentive to all details of a sale: pricing, shipping, all details about the art, the gallery and collector info.
Thank you so very much Chase.All you discussed,whilst showing us the physical aspects,is extremely informative and valuable.I truly cannot say enough about this recent tutorial,and will most surely share.Your word is wonderful and so resonates for you. My word this year is devotion. (No distractions!). Once again, another glimpse into your tremendously fab process.
Devotion is a good one. Have a great year with that.
@@ChaseLangfordArtist Again,thank you for your time in creating these lovely vignettes of studio life and styling.
You are such an honest humble artist, it is nice to hear your recommendations. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for this!
I live in a tiny one bedroom unit in Tassie and I have a corner measuring 1800 x 1200, for my desk, and an easel. That’s all my work area. Some space in the lounge which is the same room for a bookshelf. It’s been super frustrating but I’ve carefully selected furniture that is practical and fits. Took a while. My wardrobe houses some art material and the paintings, folders etc are behind the curtain in lounge. Going to buy some drawers for drawings (need to find space) and that’s all I’ll be able to house. Thank you for this video, seeing how other artists set up helps me and appreciate you making this video. G’day from Australia! 😀🖼🎨
The thumbprint is brilliant and I’m stealing it. I work on paper right now, though I will paint on canvas if I can buy them on sale, but still developing my style. And yes, I get paint everywhere, so I need a space in which a mess is acceptable. You have an efficient system and organized studio. Thank you for sharing.
Chris -- I got the thumbprint idea from the BBC tv show "Fake or Fortune".
THE MOST INFORMATIONAL ART ROOM TIPS ON THE INTERNET! YOU ROCK CHASE!
Really appreciate this peek into your studio! Very inspiring!
I've just recently discovered your work and it's hugely inspirational. My own painting journey has just begun so I look forward to referring back to this video many times as I move forward. Thanks for your marvelous work.
Frank -- gosh, so glad to hear that. keep moving forward!
Thank you so much! I love your energy!
So glad!
Due to the pandemic I was forced to convert my spare bedroom into a home office. Now that I have an option to work both at home and in the home office I was deciding on pushing the home office into a more creative-inspired environment ... as you so well put it a space that will "Elevate" me! All your studio tips are the best advice I heard so far. Thanks!
awesome!
Really great tips! Things I would have never thought about. Appreciate your advice :)
Glad it was helpful!
Some excellent tips. Thank you! I am an emerging artist, about to hang my first paintings in a show and about to attach the hanging clips and wire. I was going to do it the way you suggested for the reason you suggested, so this was confirmation that I am on the right track!

Thanks. It was useful.
Thank you for your time and suggestions. They are so helpful and inspiring. I use a quote “Follow in the direction of your dreams, by Henry Thoreau. I am not as organized with labeling, I am going to try to implement that practice. I lost my large studio, I now have a much smaller studio. I may have lost space but my new studio seems to hold a lot of peace, my visitors come in, sit in my comfy chair and say “I feel like I can just close my eyes”. I feel the same. Thanks again!
You are most welcome.
What wonderful tips and advice, thank you!
