Christopher has been making art since he was a child, and took advanced placement art in high school, while hanging out (and getting tips) with such comic book pros as X-Men's Paul Smith. After high school, he went on to design concepts for two aborted TV projects, and also worked as a computer insert artist for such TV shows as Nowhere Man, and movies like Safe-house.
Christopher's gallery work is best described as mixed media. In terms of how the artwork is created, mixed media means whatever is appropriate for the particular piece. Some of his work is as simple as watercolor mixed with coffee, with a little charcoal rubbed in, and finished with a polyurethane coat or resin. Others may have such items incorporated into them as spray paint, oil paint, ink, pressed flowers, dried insects, feathers, bones, lace, fishnet, snake skin, gold leaf, and burnt paper.
Commissions are always welcome.
He has been collected by the likes of the famous science fiction author Ray Bradbury, who owns the piece “Fossil, The Martian Cat In His Pajamas,” and has contributed to such comics as The Third Eye and Supernatural Law. He currently lives in Thousand Oaks with his wife Faith, and their daughter, Katelyn where he continues to paint, and publish his own comic book The Black Lipstick Curse.
