Her fascination with light, chroma, and land is rooted in her studies of plein-air painting as a teenager in Washington D.C. She has had the privilege of exhibiting nationally and internationally at over 40 locations including The Drawing Center and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA). She has been awarded numerous grants and community based public art commissions.

He is represented by Stanek Gallery in Philadelphia. Selected group shows include Woodmere Art Museum, Hopkins House for the Contemporary Arts, Haddon, NJ and Cacciola Gallery, New York. His projects and research have been supported by the Franz and Virginia Bader Foundation, Ballinglen Arts Foundation, The Pollock Krasner Foundation, The Vermont Studio Center, and a Serge Sacknoff Prize. Chavez received his MFA from American University, Washington D.C. and completed the Certificate program at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia. He considers his painting practice a form of philosophical investigation by beginning with his subject matter as a point of departure. He begins with a focus on the same subject over a stretch of time and his subject arrangement rarely changing. Serving as a motif, his subject becomes a scrutiny of its shadows, shapes, and the space it occupies. His questions elicit responses to how we see the same source differently in time, forming a repository of works of extended trials. The works are open to interpretations and simultaneously giving auras of timelessness, mortality and identity.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cerulean Arts","offers":[{"title":"4 weeks: June 19 - July 17 (no class on July 3)","offer_id":51610869694762,"sku":"326-029","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"June 19: Roger Chavez","offer_id":51610869727530,"sku":"326-029a","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"June 26: Michelle Oosterbaan","offer_id":51610869760298,"sku":"326-029b","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"July 10: Michelle Oosterbaan","offer_id":51610869793066,"sku":"326-029c","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"July 17: Roger Chavez","offer_id":51610869825834,"sku":"326-029d","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1280\/2807\/files\/michelle_oosterbaan_roger_chavez_plein_air_painting_at_laurel_hill_cemetery_cerulean_arts.jpg?v=1780171558","url":"https:\/\/ceruleanarts.com\/products\/plein-air-painting-at-laurel-hill-cemetery-with-michelle-oosterbaan-and-roger-chavez","provider":"Cerulean Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
