I paint and draw artwork in small and medium sizes (very occasionally a large one!), using my two favourite media--oils and soft pastels. However I am happy using most media and you may find watercolour, acrylic, charcoal and pencil works; in fact, if it makes any sort of mark on paper or canvas, I'm probably using it.
My subjects of choice are landscape and floral but I will not "pigeon-hole" my work and will tackle anything that takes my interest.
I started almost fifty years ago in a local art class, armed with half a dozen oil tubes and a few brushes. Through many years I expanded my interest to other media, driven by curiosity and a near-insatiable fascination in process and art-materials science. If something new came on the market for artists, I bought it to try it out! At one time I also did craftwork with resins and mould-making, which was fascinating, but there wasn't enough time in the day to do that and art, so one of them had to go....
Smaller artworks are a particular favourite and I tend to work in a range from the occasional ACEO up to around 40x30cm (16x12 inches). I don't have a dedicated studio, so a lot of my "mess" has to be cleared up at day's end, to keep the house tidy (it never is but that's another story). The very small paintings are miniature in size but not with scaled-down brush-strokes; thus are usually referred to as "small-format art".
Although based in North Somerset I gather much of my reference material from just about any place that I visit. When not painting, my other interests include computing, collectors' fairs and a bit of photography.

What a gorgeous little painting! I'm moving to a new house soon and am planning a gallery of miniatures.
Chris' style is so dreamy and evocative - I can almost feel the warmth of the sun, smell the sea and hear the seabirds overhead as I look at the picture. I'm keeping a very close eye on her shop for additions to my new gallery.
Packaged with great care and arrived quickly with some very helpful framing advice. Thank you!
