Chase Lawrence – Sculptor, Painter, and Brother to Future NFL Superstar Trevor Lawrence

Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence is considered to be one of the best draft prospects of recent time. The quarterback standing at 6’6″ is considered to be the consensus #1 pick in the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft.

A Heisman Trophy finalist, Trevor Lawrence and his family attended the award ceremony held on January 5, 2021. And when the cameras panned to Trevor Lawrence, one’s eyes would’ve automatically gone towards an individual in a floral shirt with a man bun.

That individual was none other than Chase Lawrence, Trevor’s older brother. Unlike Trevor though, Chase hasn’t followed the path of professional football. 

Chase, a polar opposite to Trevor Lawrence   

Primarily raised in Cartersville, Georgia, Chase is almost five years older than his younger brother Trevor Lawrence. The two have a nine-year-old sister named Olivia.

Chase, unlike Trevor, wasn’t really into sports. His interests were different. While the Lawrence family was very much into sports, Chase couldn’t be bothered. 

Trevor’s older brother was instead more interested in drawing from an early age. He has even recently cited renowned artist Alex Pardee’s work as the reason why he wanted to take up art as a profession.

Like Trevor, Chase too is married. His wife Brooke and he met while studying art together at Kennesaw State University. The two now work together as one artist on multiple projects.

Trevor Lawrence recently tied the knot with long-time girlfriend Marissa earlier this month. The two met each other in high school and now Marissa plays soccer at Anderson University.

Recently the brothers announced that they’re working on a project together. In March, Trevor Lawrence had signed a deal with collectable card-maker Topps to produce a 50-card box set, each of which features a unique design.

Of the 50, 20 cards are set to be designed by Chase and his wife Brooke. The couple has said that for the project they will draw inspiration from the 1960s and 1970s.

As draft day approaches closer, the moment Trevor Lawrence has been waiting for all his life does as well. And with the player saying that he’ll be watching the draft from Clemson with a few friends and family, one can expect Chase to be there rocking his man bun.
