As a romantic painter, Chris captures the essence of timelessness in nature. This love is expressed in living colors and the hues and tones of his paintings give applause to the on-going miracle. They are an invitation to others to feel the same peace and harmony, which only this rapport with nature can give.
Fascinated by the subtleties of nature, Chris’ paintings are an expression of his romantic view of life and usually reflect the environment he is in. From scenes of the Hotel California, in Todos Santos, Baja, a monk arranging flowers in a monastery in Hong Kong, a classical pianist or a vintage clothing shop, Chris’ engaging style is evident in his perfected usage of the illusive color changes and natural compositions. Using landscapes as a language, Chris incorporates imagery and symbolism in his art to reflect his own unique expression.
Born into an artistic family on the east coast of Canada, Chris was surrounded by the arts from a young age. “My father was a jazz musician and mother was a playwright. My grandfather was also an illustrator, so it never occurred to me that I couldn’t do it. I assumed everyone was an artist.”
