Chris is a person who’s been through some sh*t and came out the other side with a brush in hand.
Living with AuDHD (Autism + ADHD) means he experiences the world at full volume. Too many tabs open, constant motion, intense feelings, and a deep need for structure in the chaos. It’s overwhelming, but it’s also where a lot of his creativity comes from. His brain doesn’t always follow the rules. Neither does his art.
For years, Chris was behind the bar serving drinks, hiding in bottles, and numbing the noise.
He didn’t grow up making art or go to school.
In fact, he didn’t start painting until 2020, during the chaos of the pandemic.
Sober, grieving deeply, and trying to figure out how to keep going without self-destructing.
Art showed up when everything else fell apart.
"I want people to look at a piece and feel something real, even if they can’t explain what it is.” – Chris
