Review said
In moody, expressionisitic
drags of paint D. Loren
Champlin exposes the
brutalities and joys derived
of human passion. Deep reds,
flesh tones, and azures swirl
across the canvas, emphasizing
the emotion of the subject
matter. The style is highly
reminiscent of Edvard Munch,
whose works ...

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
Painting is the symphysis between artist and subject - the subject and the artist transcends a part of themselves to the painting creating a perfect union. It is a butterfly and the flower, the butterfly paints the flower flowing on the wind to the next to create new life - the miracle of pollenation.
Painting is a way of thought. There are no words really to describe the process as thoughts are emotions and hues and shapes. It is calculated chaos resulting in harmony. Painting is to capture the spirit as if one could take a breath of wind, hold it and give it to another. Painting is the spirit of man transcended onto canvas.
Art will always be interesting as we are innately intrigued about the plight of the human condition and of the plight of ourselves. It is a map of our journey - our past and our future. This is my inspiration. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
As an artist, there is a severe psychological need to create. It is not something you really decide to do, it chooses you. Creating art is like having sex. . . very difficult to ignore the need and the desire and the passion to create. |

| Your Personal Biography |
D. Loren Champlin currently resides in the highlands of Maine with his loving spouse and son.
Champlin showed an interest in drawing very early in life and began by drawing his youthful passion of horses at the tender age of 11. Champlin has been painting professionally since 1992. Early works were predominately done in pastels. After about 1997, he now works predominately in oils, yet the youthful spirit of his work remains the same.
hamplin boldly uses colour and line to express his artistic vision. The colour is weaved together to form a tapestry. Bold lines give a feeling of motion and energy. His works are influenced by the passion and energy of life. |
