As a young artist, Chris began to show his work in Chicago, making a name for himself in the art community in Bucktown and Wicker Park. He became a resident artist at The Aesthetic Eye Gallery in 2001, where his work was shown and sold on a monthly basis. Longing to see what the world had to offer him, Chris traveled to London when he was nineteen and began working in a bronze foundry part-time, and showing his work around Camden Town where he lived for four years. London changed Chris in ways he cannot quite put into words, except to say that the age and immense history of the place and it's many graveyards and old churches haunt him in a way nothing else has. Seeking yet another change, Chris moved back to the States in 2005. This time to the historic Capital Hill neighborhood of Denver, CO. There he joined up with several galleries, learned to weld, and perfected his life casting and sculpting talents under his mentor David Parvin. Since then he has participated in countless group and solo shows in Denver, he has dabbled in prosthetic make up sculpture for the theatre and motion picture industry on such projects as "The Wiz" and "Ink" where he sculpted the masks for all principle characters. Most recently he has begun working with "Gallery Provocateur" in Chicago. Now an international artist, Chris's work has appeared in several art publications, and in 2009, 5280 Magazine named him as their Reader's Choice for Top Local Artist
