Tiny quiet corner of a new chaotic piece I'm working on. What do you see here ?

User

'Planets' painting during it's work in progress stages, before the spaceman in the top corner. The smaller painting on the right is the crash test dummy for it. I'll use this canvas to determine the position of each of the flowers and it's brushstrokes before painting on the main piece. I don't usually work so precise but I wanted to paint these with as little brushstrokes as possible, so it worked for this.

Work in progress when I was painting the 'Planets' painting. The smaller canvas on the right is basically the test dummy. Each part of the flowers I'll try to do with 1 brush stroke (or as little as possible) So, that canvas on the right is where I decide the positions of each of the flowers and how to paint them before putting them on the main piece.
Each flower representing a different planet with the spaceman falling from top right.
Thanks to everyone who's ordered limite...d edition print of this, they'll be arriving with me this week then dispatched.

Four small season sketchy type paintings. Each one done very quick with very assertive brushstrokes, putting on the paint and just leaving it. Not worked on paintings this small for a while. Things like this also help spark new ideas with colour palettes etc.

You know when you see someone or something that 'hits' you? well, this is what Chris's work has done to me!

User

We received our original painting today and words cannot describe how beautiful it is and how over the moon we are. Chris has been wonderful to work with and we are so privileged to own one of his pieces. We will most definitely be purchasing again and recommending Chris Rivers artwork to all of our family and friends.

User

We are proud owners of several original pieces of Chris’ work. Our very first purchase was one of his cymbal paintings. We then commissioned him to do some artwork on canvas. Absolutely stunning work.

User

Taken a long time to find an artist I admire but finally have and my prints of Exit Eternity, Fragile Life and Colony framed and hanging beautifully and can admire the intricate detail. Thank you.

User

Received my 2 prints today “You” “&Me” absolutely love them. Fab quality prints I was worried you wouldn’t get the texture of the oil. I needn’t have worried they look excellent you can really see the texture even though only a print. Just need some decent frames now to do them justice.

Thanks. ���

User

I really love your art. It is very Turneresque, and part abstract, so fascinating to see.

User

I have received my 1st print today from Chris and I am totally blown away. He is an amazing artist and the detailing is out of this world. This purchase will be definitely the 1st of many more.

User

I have a slight obsession with Chris Rivers incredible art work. The quality of both my original paintings and my prints is absolutely outstanding. The colors and his attention to detail are for me totally captivating.

Such a talented artist and and an all round nice guy.

Thank you so much for my beautiful paintings Chris and i've by no means finished filling my walls yet ;)

User

I have a few pieces of Chris' work from the days he was selling them on instagram, so a few years ago. It's amazing how far his work has come!





The pieces I have are simply beautiful with so much attention to detail, the quality is simply amazing. To find an artist with such a creative mind for things of my liking and to use objects as his canvas is first class. I haven't bought anything lately but I'm itching to!!

User

I bought the full set of Heaven's Basement artwork. It's awesome! Chris was great in answering all my questions and delivery was quick. I love browsing Chris' art and can see myself spending more money in the future. Lusting after the silk scarf at the moment....

User

I bought a print from the buy art fair in Manchester today and I love it so much! I've never really been into Art but Chris's paintings are just amazing! There are so many I want to buy!

User

I am completely addicted to Chris Rivers Art, I have a great collection! They make my home a wonderful place to be! Looking forward to future purchases �

User

Finally have my large print of "halo if flies" framed and on the wall, and looks amazing! Both the quality of the print (local framing shop also impressed by the quality of the paper and print), and the ordering service/ delivery/packaging is excellent. Looking forward to purchasing my next Chris Rivers Art painting... But problem is deciding which one... X

User

Finally got my savages of Eden "spring" edition framed and it's hanging pride of place in the living room!! Pictures online don't do them any justice it's absolutely beautiful x

User

Chris's art is wonderful. I find the worlds he creates beautiful, thought provoking and magical. They aren't depictions of the real world but capture feelings and unexpressed emotions that are inside me.

I have seen a bit of how Chris's art has developed. I am convinced it will only get more interesting in the coming years.

User

Chris has painted an original piece for me and now he’s just starting another. What a great guy and extremely talented artist �

User

Bought the triple set of "Counting down the hours" and I love them. The colours and detail in each one is amazing. Each time I look at them I find something new. Paper quality is superb. Well packaged and quick delivery.
