About

William Ballard creates expressive works that aim to teach people about themselves and the world around them. In his first solo show titled "I Dream of the Sea" he displayed eight paintings of nostalgic beach scenes. Through the use of warm colors and soft, hazy transitions he was able to create works that almost feel like a memory you've had.  Overall, his goal as an artist is to create pieces that convey a sense of depth and awareness, drawing viewers in and encouraging them to reflect on their own experiences and emotions. Ballard completed his BFA degree at the University of Georgia in the Summer of 2023.
