Welcome to the Art Gallery Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Chuck Staley grew up and lived in several southern states before he married and moved to Los Angeles to work in the film and TV business.
Staley has always been an artist of one type or another. When he wasn’t writing screenplays or working behind the camera directing the movie “Cracking Up” with actors Fred Willard and Harry Shearer, or directing music videos with Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson and Jerry Lee Lewis, he was working in films and TV shows with such stars as James Spader, Gary Busey, Diane Lane, James Woods, and Alan Rickman.
Then there were the six years he spent with CBS, directing for Sixty Minutes and the CBS Evening News while writing a novel.
And when Chuck isn’t involved with show business, he’s in his California studio creating the painterly artwork for which he is becoming known.
Staley says, “With my artwork it’s all about vivid colors. I love color – lots of it!"

SOME GREAT COMMENTS FROM FRIENDS AND CLIENTS:
I’m a big fan of the West Coast so I love finding artists that can capture its beauty.
J'aime beaucoup cette photo...
J'adore les vieux trains ! Et dans l'atmosphère, je lui trouve un côté nocturne à la Van Gogh... I like your use of color, Chuck, it's cool!
Chuck, your work is astoundingly beautiful, haunting.

Hey Chuck! The flowers are beautiful; I just love your work.
Breath taking!!! Awesome art! Splendid colors! So lovely!
Unusual technique... Wicked colors! Far out, man! I remember seeing this sort of solarizing effect used on a Beatles poster many years ago, and was blown away. Wow!
Interesting work, I like it.
Just a fantastic creation, Chuck. Bravo!!!
Well, you've done it again. Your script writing was ahead of its time, but now you are just at the front of the wave. You mentioned a long time ago that you were working with art, but I had no idea it was this sophisticated! How great, Chuck. I love it.
I really really like your work. Good luck.
Your art is truly fantastic! I had no idea that you were into this.
I love it! I'm so impressed! I absolutely love your work! Having lived in a hi-rise "Home Alone" struck a chord for sure. I really appreciate your art. Love it, love it, wish I could do it. "August Flowers" is gorgeous!
Really like your website. It's well done, clean and not cluttered, easy to navigate. Go get 'em. It's good work. You are truly an inspiration Chuck... Maybe one day I will be able to create art half as beautiful as your own. It is truly remarkable to me, and some of the most original work I have ever seen... Thanks again for granting me a glimpse into your fascinating world!
