Chris has drawn since early childhood. He often observed and sketched nature with his father, who continues to be a constant source of knowledge and inspiration for him. His interest in wildlife began when he and his brother, Paul, became volunteers at a local nature center. Chris soon enrolled in the art classes offered at the center, painting and drawing the animals he observed. His brother chose to focus his time and attention on feeding and caring for the animals. Today, the brothers' continued interests in wildlife are reflected in their work, Chris through his artwork and Paul through his work as a zoo veterinarian. Their wildlife interests are once again combined as they collaborate on the written texts for Chris's original prints.
