Chris Watts is an award-winning graphic designer, singer-songwriter and illustrator who now has embraced paint as another medium.

Inspired by the Pop Art movement and his love of Warhol, Watt's works deliver a burst of colour and impact on a grand scale. They provide a contemporary view on the global landscape of fashion, style and attitude. Taking reference from popular culture much like iconic Pop artists before him, Watt's large scale canvases and use of 70s pop colour have helped him create a fun and animated world within his work

Watt's figures have a certain level of confidence which is only enhanced by his use of a large scale canvas. The characters he creates exhibit no shame in their stance, style, actions and give no sense of embarrassment which can the viewer to try and find themselves within the work, almost as is Watts has created their alter ego.

Champagne, motorcycles and The King of Rock and Roll are Watts choice of subject matter for this group show, really playing into the sense of freedom, fun and nostalgia that is easily received and enjoyed by his audience.
