This is a framed Archival Print on 100% cotton Hahnemühle Photo Rag® 308 gsm.

This is a very thick cotton paper with natural textures and a matte finish. The print is mounted to 3/4” dense foam material allowing it to float inside the maple frame much like a wrapped canvas is displayed.

The frame is custom made in Vermont out of hard maple. Note that these frames do not have glass. This gives the print an incredible look with the richest possible coloring and no glare. Display in a dry, temperate area away from direct sunlight and air vents.

PASTURE SERIES

The works feature a strident figurative style with cartoon-like imagery.

The series has been described as having “a precise and refined neo-expressionist aesthetic”.

Inspired by both the graffiti subculture of the 1980s and early post-modernist painter’s such as Hunt Slonem.

The primary subject of these works is a wide-eyed cow, stacked one upon another in various configurations. The blank gaze of the huddled cows appears to communicate a message to the viewer. A contemplative viewing can lead one to imagine the cows as a deliberately huddled pasturing herd; or conversely, as an overly crowded penned-in group of livestock. Chris intentionally leaves the viewer to decide if the composition is either playful or provocative.
