Wilderman's Author Chad Elliott
Wilderman's is the creation of Chad Elliott. Elliott has been painting, sculpting, songwriting and performing for over 20 years, all the while holding on to the inner wildness of his youth. Elliott, who has 3 children, was inspired to write and record the Wilderman's book and album after becoming a father. Wilderman’s books, albums and art exhibits embrace the fires of creativity and inspiration. Elliott hopes this work will kindle a love for the arts and the outdoors in children for generations to come.
