“I work to find the memory behind the image you send; that special person or pet in your life, whether passed or living; or that romantic view that means so much to you; a seascape, a beach, a townscape or landscape. It will be your very own commission.”

“Chris is the most talented artist. I asked Chris if he would from paint a portrait from photo of our dog Xena as a present for my husband for his birthday. Along the way, I received sketches of the progress. The final portrait is so life like it’s incredible! The attention to detail is fantastic, down to the white tip of Xena’s tail. L. Johnston, Monmouth.

I was asked a few years ago to produce a series of works preserving the Welsh city of Cardiff’s Public houses. Most of these pubs no longer exist so these works add to a historical record.
