Rob Schamberger, WWE’s resident artist-at-large, has exited the company. PWInsider reports that Schamberger, best known for his WWE Canvas 2 Canvas videos where he would paint portraits of WWE stars, announced today that he had parted ways with the company.
Schamberger’s announcement reads:
“After over a decade, my time with WWE has come to a close. I’m grateful that I had the opportunity over this period of time to focus on making art and I’m so lucky that doing so has brought so many wonderful people into my life. I’ve had the opportunity to learn from some the smartest and most capable people in their fields that I’ve ever met. Real friendships, people that I truly love, have been the result of this experience. And it brought you, the person reading this, into my life. How amazing is that?
If you ever bought my art, if you ever came up to say hello at a show, if you ever just gave me a thumbs up on social media, thank you. Thank you for allowing my work into your life.
This chapter has come to a close and a new one is about to begin that I’m genuinely excited about. The work never stops.”
