Chris Chalk lives and works as a professional artist in Pembrokeshire, West Wales. Painting in oils he paints a wide variety of subject matter including portraits, pet portraits and wildlife, but his main passion it the beautiful Welsh landscape. Growing up on a dairy farm in West Wales Chris was always very interested in nature and the outdoors, and spent much of his time drawing and painting the wildlife that surrounded him. This has stayed with him to this day and Chris is never happier than when at home working in his studio, or when spending time out in the Welsh countryside sketching and painting.
