Max Sansing is a Chicago native born in 1981 and raised on the South Side’s Avalon Park area. His father and mother were both artist and Max naturally picked up the love for painting from the early age of ten. Fueled by the desire to create Max would later go on to teach himself how to paint, followed by two years of formal college training at the American Academy of Art. (1999- 2000) He would further expand his talents by creating mural throughout Chicago and by translating art electronic media by becoming a graphic design artist. Max work has been displayed at art galleries and special events though out Chicago.
Max’s portraits are often represented in monochrome and full color with colors conveying the emotions and energy that he feels make for more of a deeper senses stasis than just common skin tone. He tends to start a piece with a portrait and it dictates and tells the story, design, and concept of anything that follows it on canvas. His life and the lessons that he learns ultimately inspire his works. -Artistic Jeanius
