Christopher Sharits

My story

My late father, filmmaker, artist, and professor Paul Sharits, made it his mission to fully indoctrinate me into the world of art. My playgrounds from the birth were museums, galleries, theaters, and universities. Dinners and parties consisted of many other filmmakers, directors and art giants like Andy Warhol. 

As a child it didn't register with me that these people were exceptional. Only when I finally succumbed to my passion later in life did I fully appreciate the childhood that was gifted to me.

As a bipolar artist my feelings run on overdrive. I rarely have the patience to draw landscapes or portraits, but I deeply appreciate those that do. Abstract are my thoughts and abstract is my art. 

 Everyone has heroes. Mine are impressionist, post-impressionist and abstract artists from Cézanne to Van Gogh to Kandinsky to Pollock, and, of course, my dad.

My main goal in the second half of my life is to have fun. Art makes me happy and I hope you can smile at my silliness.

May you find your joy and live it. 

Thank you for visiting.
