Philadelphia painter Christopher Wajda
After a period of training, every artist embarks on a voyage of discovery. My work has negotiated the travelled road from journeyman to painter : an artistic rebirth that contains within it my artistic vision.
My pictorial technique strives for a lyrical juxtaposition : a synergy that wells from my travels, education in the arts and personal technique. Studing the paintings of the great masters of the craft of painting, academic and philosophical schools of thought has brought me to my current style. That is the creation of my art which is expressed by the fusion of three things: My love of traditional artistic techniques of the great masters of yesteryear, a study of modern masters who have brought fresh ideas and insights into the artistic realm, combined with countless hours both in the studio and En plein air, painting subjects that speak to the heart and eyes with an equal force.

Additional Information
Christopher Wajda, born in 1972 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, graduated from Holy Ghost Preparatory School in Bensalem, PA before attending art school and later studying art and design at the university level in Philadelphia. Wajda began working in illustration in 1994 for the Trenton Times, New Jersey's largest daily newspaper producing half and three quarter page full color illustrations. Wajda also produced humorous illustration and graphic design for a wide array of businesses and organizations, from book illustration to safety and business cartoons for trade journals. Gradually, developing websites and industrial design grew from the exposure of those first illustrations leading to the opening of Bucks County's NorthPoint Studios in 2001.
