William C. Lindsay

William moved from his hometown of Merrimack, NH to NYC in 1998 to attend Wagner College as a theater major. He began his work in 1998 sitting in biology class at his first college. With just a pen and a notebook listening to lectures he would fill an entire notebook page with his never ending squiggle line and explosion designs over a number of class periods. After a few years he decided to transfer to The School of Visual Arts in 2000 studying graphic design and fine art. In a class called originality, which encouraged the student to work on and create new images and ideas, his designs then became alive. His notebook doodles had now been created with pen on 18" x 24" drawing paper.

Experimenting with mediums, his designs then moved on to acrylic and 3-D fabric paint on canvas in many color combinations and sizes. He now does his continuous squiggle line and explosion designs on on many things, paintings, pillows, T-shirts, lampshades, cocktail glasses, vases, his car, and interior walls of people's apartments. He would like as many people as possible to experience and enjoy the influence of one continuous line design and one day he will. Today he now works out of his studio in Astoria Queens and continues to work on this series as well as design window displays at a high-end luxury suiting company in mid-town Manhattan, NYC.
