Roger Chandler, Fallbrook CA
Member Since January 2014
Artist Statement “Iwas born an artist
and a dreamer.”
Dreams of perfect waves,
tropical places, beautiful
beaches, and brilliant sunsets.
“I travel, surf and paint in
some of the most beautiful and
exotic places on earth, in reality
and imagined. I would like to
think my paintings reflect the
amazing adventures I’ve had
and convey that indescribable
feeling of a beautiful sunset
reflecting on a perfect wave on
a perfect beach.”
At age 18 Chandler was awarded a full scholarship to Art School
where he studied graphic design and illustration. And started his
artistic career as a technical illustrator at NASA when the space
shuttle program was in its infancy.
Attracted by better surf and the lifestyle of Southern California,
Chandler moved to San Diego.
Since that time he has become an award-winning artist and
illustrator, with his artwork featured on magazine covers, national
advertisements, editorial art, brochures, and billboards. Recipient
of the New York Art Directors Award for pen & ink illustrations
in the book “Jasper Ridge, a Stanford Sanctuary,” one of his paintings
appeared in the movie “The Big Bounce” starring Owen Wilson.
Resent commissions include the poster and t-shirt paintings for
The Aloha Expo, Heritage of Aloha Festival, E Hula Mau and Noah
Kai Clothing company .
Chandler currently lives and works on a three-acre “Starlite
Ranch”, located on “the outer island of Fallbrook,” which he and
his partner Mary are developing as an artist retreat. With a large
studio, potters wheels, kiln, guest cottage, and lots of room for
