Hello and welcome! My name is Chris Weekes and I’m an artist based in South London where I create all my paintings from my home studio.
I work directly with art lovers all over the world to produce custom pieces for their walls. I also work with art agencies in London where my work is exhibited in work spaces throughout the capital.
All of my work is sold through my website or my Instagram where you can contact me directly.
Commissions are always open so please get in touch if you would like a piece!
My work is driven by my love of colour and my style of painting comes from the world of abstract expressionism that was made famous in the 1940’s and 50’s New York. I was drawn to this type of painting because of the bold colours, playful art process and the simple act of self expression.
Creating art is a huge part of who I am and an important part of how I navigate the world around me.

My paintings are the result of hours of editing. Adding and taking away colour until I feel they are finished.
These initial actions happen quickly with washes of colour providing the base coat to the canvas.
When the painting starts to reveal itself, I begin to add final touches of detail to tie the painting together.
