My name is William VanDorin, I am a surrealistic
fantasy artist. Reality is only a perception of what is possible,
and that is limited only by our imagination. Inspired by this
statement, my world has been a departure from the norm from a very
young age. My life has been spent in pursuit of a single goal, the
ability to create anything I can imagine. I am classically trained
in many disciplines, and nearly all mediums. I have traveled the globe
in the hopes of cultural enrichment, only to achieve an odd
detachment. My work reflects the world in a, “through the looking
glass” twist on what is, and could be. I am wildly irreverent and
satirical, and yet compulsively ambitious. I have a bachelors degree
from the California Institute of Fine Arts, but put very little
stock in certificates over ability. Loud Silence Studio, has been my
creative home for over three decades, specializing in high end art,
and collectables.
Artists who have influenced me include, Walt Disney, Michelangelo
Buonarroti, Frank Frazzetta, Salvador Dali, Auguste Rodin, and Raphael
Sanzio. Literary masters that have influenced me are, Edgar
Allen Poe, Isiac Asimov, The brothers Grim and Hómeros. Let me show
you the unlikely removed from the mundane, let me show you
the world of Loud Silence…
