A message from Chris…
NATURE
In my travels, I find inspiration in observing and reflecting the patterns and interplay of light found in nature, which I incorporate into my artwork.
NOSTALGIA
Visiting nostalgic locations, both in person and through memory, provides me with inspiration for my paintings. I find great fulfillment in taking a reflective approach to life, embracing tranquility, and deriving joy from the process of creating both paintings and illustrations.
HUMOUR
I am also passionate about creating illustrations that capture the humor and lighter aspects of life.
