About
Born in Manchester. Studied art in Blackpool and Newcastle. Worked in the building trade for a decade, began teaching art in Leicester.
Artists Statement
Expressing light through colour and the arrangement of form are as important as the representation of the scene. Chris Macauley is not a subject specific painter. Whether he is working on still life, portraiture or landscape, he is always trying to discover what the painting is about; the object matter is not really the subject matter.
Exhibitions/ galleries
Chris Macauley has had two one man shows in London, appeared on Sky Arts and has work in private collections throughout the world, as well as receiving portrait commissions privately and through Mckay Williamson - Art Advisory London.
