Chris Acheson
“The bric-a-brac of popular culture, cinema andmusic are the key subjects running throughmost of mywork.”
only those in the know would observe, is that the titles of the three pieces are all Roxy Music songs. An admirer of Pre-Raphaelites such as John Everett Millais, John Waterhouse and Arthur Hughes, Mancunian painters Pierre Vallette and L.S. Lowry, alongside Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons, he likes to use inspiration from a diverse range of mediums and styles, and mixing up and challenging conventional styles and compositions is what this new collection is all about.
“I have always been drawn to pop culture, the heightened colour, the juxtaposition of the glamorous and the ordinary" says Acheson. “As an artist you have to be true to yourself and paint what you like and then hope the collectors will like it too!” Gallery The collection is available as framed giclée prints or boxed canvas, with an edition of 95.
