He was born in Omaha, Nebraska tells stories of people from suburban Midwestern neighbourhoods. One of his most significant works is his box set \u201cBuilding Stories\u201d which took a decade to complete and was created with much experimentation. It comprises of fourteen works in total and includes Ware\u2019s iconic illustration characteristics, complex composition, scale and perspectives all done in a comic\/graphic style. While he experiments with the form of the work itself whether it be book, pamphlet or poster, he also experiments, or rather, takes advantage of the linear\/geometric quality of comic books. Ware is able to create informative diagrams and convey information in a way that all people can appreciate especially those who are fans of art. He is also unique in how he shares comics that are both either wordless or text-heavy, making him all the more compelling and versatile. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/x3RoVU6e2vGb3ldy4_L76N3QLLjmC3uSyrgw3G7E4-joVXFciOD2b634YpJTs11BXduWbxIeIZqBhzetGK9dy9hp4tIEMDaNFKGszoKnMSlAToxazouAeS3flXuKf4gkabb3Owsj\" alt=\"Image result for chris ware\" \/><figcaption>Chris Ware: Building Stories<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/GER4Dkcf7Kmq_k3K52WoeSG7jOD9siXbx64z1oasuiQscyvXSRBKL0J_WuzdWFPBpWl5jm5_PkYdF6AyKfM7j5jTxeQkoLzZIESE4TeLqb8czA5IC8Erbb6qCUgkC7iJ2jA7C9yA\" alt=\"Image result for chris ware\" \/><figcaption>Chris Ware Mother&#8217;s Day card<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/WLQDhTVazHyB2W2_xQjvrcJPbmnUj7Jw0Hsx4dXad4aXWtxvvPFmMlqkKqxLjMw8vFbIRHxV5E_6V3LRxRfYw4p4ywrrV64bBrUtPlaU1xlqlxONEvCTq2RzMpyMzx0HQAzIeFcs\" alt=\"Image result for chris ware\" \/><figcaption>Chris Ware: How I Work<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/tRgjoMP6MsMKhi-9MNneAKeJx6EBrV-c3QB_GooEwQqWMymRTNuqxCWNkAbUuxfnWjRyMrA1siwBvDxY5C25luyROzLHYh9xEaCmRkXekMVDXnbD2ElBZkg7kIxzkgktyi1ZWysx\" alt=\"Related image\" \/><figcaption>Chris Ware: Building Stories<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/YvNv3Bpn2oIIG-OMSaRJp0OhZMhpIDuMJ4BlQNOHXaz9qTblsK3wnkEvwJTOOEQS_BCdkxLTOovjI6zhvRD8SfSWXSk7dvShZmzkHAH5tLMqJQaqV-RxoIWncW_rA5tu1KR1oJ4U\" alt=\"Image result for chris ware art\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Ware is known as a master of the comic form.
