William Toliver is a self-taught contemporary artist currently living in Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. Always having an interest in art as a young child, it was not until 2012 that he began to work on his skills. While working primarily with acrylics and graphite, his take on timeless subject matter features vivid colors and intricate details that create one of a kind masterpieces. Toliver contributes much of his inspiration to finding beauty in the simplicity of life, and the moments caught between camera flashes along with the artistic inspirations of Sandra Chevrier, Peter Terrin, Kehinde Wiley, Roy Lichtenstein, Salvador Dali, and Andy Warhol.
