Early Years
Always fascinated with wildlife, nature and the outdoors and growing up on a dairy farm in West Wales Chris spent much of his time roaming the fields and woodlands sketching and painting anything that would stay still long enough to allow him to do so.
His twenties were spent serving in the armed forces, which unfortunately allowed little time for indulging in his passion for art. However after leaving the forces in the late nineties Chris spent six years living and travelling in New Zealand and Australia, where he was once again able to take up the brush.
