Chris Baker from Barnet began painting after retiring as a photographer. His subject interests are diverse but mostly revolve around natural subjects. “It’s the light that inspires me whether it’s a figure, a landscape or a bunch of bananas!” He works in oils pastel and charcoal.

Chris loves to bring joy into people’s homes with his artwork, whether it’s with ballet, landscape, figures and portraits or cityscapes, there is always a sense of beauty and frequently, sunshine.
