Showtime

My exhibition Chinoiserie opened last night at the Washhouse Gallery. It was a great night and I wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along to look at my latest works. Your support means alot to me especially during this current climate. So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!!




PS. There's only 7 paintings left so if you're planning to buy, please visit the gallery quickly!

Finitto!

Have finished painting for my 'Chinoiserie' Show which opens next week. I always ask my friend (and also talented artist) Peter Cerneaz the absolute last date I can hand over the paintings which will allow time for framing. Talk about last minute - seems to be the only way I can work and produce my best stuff these days.

Chinoiserie Exhibition

My new show "Chinioserie" opens up at the Washouse Gallery later this month from the 21st to 10th May. Please click here to view some of my new paintings.

Fusia

My range of new cards called Fusia was launched at the SpringFair in Birmingham, UK by renowned UK publisher Woodmansterne. The range consists of 12 cards and is inspired from travels to Asia and my love of antique textiles.

"We love Chris' combination of fresh vibrant colours and subtle textures with his own unique twist of eastern promise. The reaction to the launch of the Fusia Range has been so enthusiastic here in the UK - we can't wait to see Chris' new work" says Julia Woodmansterne, Publishing Director of Woodmansterne Publications.

These blank square format cards will be sold worldwide and will be available in my online shop soon. 

Hamilton Baird Launch at Sydney Gift Fair 2009

Our new range of Hamilton Baird mugs (inspired by our legal hotshot Matthew) was recently launched at the Sydney Gift Fair last month to great success. Matthew is always asking "Why isn't there anything nice that you can buy for guys for Christmas, Birthday or office Kris Kringle etc that doesn't cost the earth and is not daggy socks or boxer shorts?" The wait is now over.

The HB range comes in 16 designs and there is something for everyone from the high flying jetsetter to the card shark to the spiritual guru. Each mug is made from high quality fine bone china and comes packaged in an elegant gift box so there is no need for gift wrapping.
