Introduction

Charles Christopher Hill was born on March 4th 1948 in Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He is a renowned artist and printmaker. He is currently living and working in Los Angeles.

 

His creation is inspired by the frescoes discovered on the walls of prehistoric European caves, especially Spanish ones. Charles Christopher Hill's abstract paintings are formed by graphic and minimalist suites of colored dots. About his multiples inspirations, the artist explains: "My work builds on visual clues left by previous cultures; I like physical anthropology."
