BIOGRAPHY
Christopher has been an artist since early childhood, watching Bob Ross on tv and following along using crayons. His studies range from personal training with contemporary masters such as Quang Ho and Casey Baugh, to classical academic art technique, with much inspiration from 19th century art and the Impressionist movement. “Light is my favorite subject to paint, and I love using brushwork to add life and movement to my paintings.”
Christopher has worked with Lucasfilm, Marvel, Disney, and the Little Prince, and his clients include George Lucas, Fender Guitars, and Major League Baseball. Currently based in France, Christopher exhibits around the world.
Outside of the visual arts, Christopher finds enjoyment in swing and blues dancing, holding several championship titles in the US, as well playing guitar and mandolin, recently performing at the La Roche Bluegrass Festival in France.

STATEMENT
I consider myself a storyteller. Each painting is a story for you to participate in. It’s a memory from your past, or somewhere you wish you could be right now. I am honored to be a part of your story.
