Tuition

I have been a full time professional artist since 1980. I now spend my summer months painting from my home and studio on the Greek Island of Alonissos, where I also provide painting tuition for holidaymakers to this wonderful location

I return to my Worcestershire home each winter where I am available for private tuition for individuals or groups and demonstrations/workshops for your local art group. http://www.christopherhughesartist.co.uk/Art%20Courses.htm

 

Biography

Chris trained as a ceramic artist at the Royal Worcester Porcelain Company, painting their most prestigious vases. Since leaving them in 1980 to turn freelance his watercolours and ceramics featuring the English countryside have been sought out by dealers and collectors world-wide. More recently Chris has enjoyed working in oils to capture the bold colours of the Aegean island of Alonissos, where together with his wife Jane he spends the summer months painting and holding watercolour painting courses at his greek island home. Continuing with this new style when they return each year to their UK home Chris is inspired again to paint the everchanging moods of the Worcester countryside.
