“If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.” Carl Jung
Wilson is a Central Illinois born and based designer and regionalist photographer. His photographs provide an authentic, artful, glimpse of the character and culture of the region. "It’s about reverence," said Wilson. "There are times it works out perfectly. There are times it fails miserably. I value both." Wilson was an executive writer, and a medical and generalist photographer in the healthcare field for 33 years - cut steel in a foundry for a decade and drove a truck for a time. He is a graduate of the University of Illinois, the fine arts program at Illinois Central College, and juried Illinois Artisan for Photography, Illinois State Museum.

For my friend Gary,
The only thing bigger than this cowboy's personality is the size of his heart. I can't imagine this world without you in it so, I'm just gonna carry you with me wherever
I go. Best friends forever; love you buddy. (2026)

For my partner John,
and the furry little ones that were family over 35 years,
I miss you guys. (2009)

“My philosophy is: It’s none of my business what people say of me and think of me. I am what I am, and I do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. And it makes life so much easier”
