Born in Chicago and headed south, Henry Christopher Warner is creating the dominant portion of his painting career in Atlanta, Georgia. He obtained a BFA in graphic design while attending the University of Georgia. While studying graphics, film, and fine art he stumbled across his unique process of composing in 1988.Warner’s vision is based upon the "Innocence" of youth producing imagery that connects with children as well as adults. Child-like imagery and memories reflecting the humorous and sometimes disturbing nature of life play an important role in his creative process.

The use of the frequently rendered bee is a metaphor of “fear and love”. He feels these two emotions are the most commonly felt symptoms of human life and appears to be a signature touch of many of his paintings.In addition to his formal training in art, he has gained significant knowledge and experience from the relationships he has developed with working artists. While living in the Castleberry Hill district, Warner produced nearly twenty group shows from 1993 to 1997. 1998 to 2000 he currated a monthly series of solo artist exhibitions entitled “ArtChanges” highlighting diversity and local talent.

H.C. Warner currently works with acrylics and mixed media, as well as digital design. The process is usually developed with layering fabric and paints to create texture, epoxy and found objects to develop the full project. His future goals include short films, a children’s book “Float”, “thoughtforms” apparel, interactive dvds, and many future exhibitions.
