Chance Billmeyer was born in Long Beach, Californa in 1963, and raised in Denver, Colorado.
In 1982 he moved back to California and the beautiful city of San Diego.
Chance is a graduate from San Diego State University (1986),
with a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art, and over 15 years of illustration, painting and design.

His father is an avid and prolific landscape oil painter who resides in Colorado and exhibits his work frequently.
Colorado provided Chance with the opportunity to develop a strong relationship to nature,
an appreciation for its variety and palette, and an understanding of the delicate balance of life and death.
Denver, and subsequent trips to Europe and Central America allowed him to study architecture and figure drawing.
His work combines the rich textures and vivid colors of his surroundings: people, architecture and landscape.
His paintings explore and reveal the dynamic relationship between all three.

Sale & Commission Work:
If you see something you like, please contact me for pricing information.
If a painting is not within your budget, I can always create something that you will enjoy.
Work by commission. “I like to find out where the painting is going to live.
Just as a gardender chooses a plant to go into a garden, the painter views the home and the space wherethe
painting will live. This allows me to work with a palette that will interact with the environment in
a complimentary way, each accenting the other. I also like to find out what the owner’s interests are
and paint according to their passion, creating a work
that is intensely personal.”
