The Breakup 24×24
All works, oil on wood

My take on the feuding turf wars on Hollywood Blvd. between the actors posing as Superhero’s for tips.

Advice: What is the best advice you’ve received? What is the best advice you can give?

Outdated career advice on being the inaccessible artist. That didn’t fit my contrary nature as I often do the opposite of what smart people tell me. So I built my career in Social Media by being totally available to the public.

Expect repeated short-term failure in your career. Think about your long-term goals. Don’t have children if art is the most important thing in your life, unless you are wealthy.

Aura: How would you describe your energy, style, etc.?
Multi-disciplined categories, but always striving for honest feeling with expressive power in technique.


William Wray blends traditional skill sets of realism and the sheer energy of abstract expressionism in an ongoing evolution to find the balance between two seemingly unrelated styles. Wray has challenged himself to create a brand of realistic expressionism he hopes to use a bridge into the customarily circumspect contemporary art world.
