Original oil on canvas board, framed in a floating white wood tray frame measuring 28 x 33.5 cm.

‘Daybreak’ and ‘Nightfall’ are two paintings which sit like bookends, gentle echoes of each other as the day begins and ends. We get a sense of coming and going, as these figures appear to be transient, caught mid-movement. Turning away from each other into the changing light.

The Artist

Looking closely at light and shadow, Chris blends painterly realism with intriguing narrative. He pays attention to the everyday, the half-noticed and the overlooked. From an isolated building next to a canal to an unremarkable row of houses - Chris collects imagery which has sparked his imagination and transforms it. By placing these single houses into unexpected rural spaces he changes the context and thus creates a new narrative - steeped in otherness, nostalgic beauty and a hint of the surreal. A black and white cat traces his every step.
