A Brush with Culture: Unveiling Chris Leib’s Astronauts and Bonobo Chimps

Chris Leib finished his anthropology degree at UC Berkeley but became an illustrator. After studying at the San Francisco Academy of Art and apprenticing with a portrait painter, he became a full-time artist.

Leib’s intricately realistic paintings of astronauts and Bonobo monkeys give them a physical presence that draws us into their stories and cultures.
