About

Chase Linden is a Michigan-based contemporary artist and musician working primarily in acrylic painting, with a body of work that also includes prints and digitally-originated pieces later converted into original paintings. His style is bold and expressive — pop-art visuals built from color, movement, and form, rooted in Christian faith and genuine curiosity.

Linden's work began with a simple, obsessive observation: the fluidity of water — how it moves, spreads, and finds its shape the moment it lands on a surface. That structure became the foundation of his visual language, later shaped further by a childhood spent watching cartoons like SpongeBob and Disney films, and by the bold, graphic influence of artists like KAWS. Above all of it, Linden names his deepest influence plainly: God's creation itself.

Faith runs underneath everything Linden makes — not as a theme applied after the fact, but as the actual process. Discipled early on by a mentor who taught him to pray before every creative session — “God, take me out of it, make this about you” — Linden treats the studio as a place of surrender as much as a place of work. That practice, he says, is directly responsible for his self-produced 23-track album, Lotus, released April 2026.

Linden runs every part of his practice independently — painting, pricing, selling, and marketing his own work, with no team behind him. His work has shown at Mriya Gallery in Tribeca, New York, and at Fine Art at the Village in Rochester Hills, Michigan, where he brought a full solo catalog of paintings, prints, and small original drawings to a single booth. He's built a growing audience online the same way he builds everything else — directly, personally, and without shortcuts, sharing his process and his faith in equal measure.

“My purpose is to evoke faith and clarity through art and design,” Linden says. “I want people to walk away from my work feeling something — uplifted, seen, or challenged to see things differently.”
