Chris Sinden
BACK
After five years at Hastings School of Art and Canterbury College of Art, and with an Honours Degree in Graphic Design, Chris spent the next 25 years working as an art director in advertising agencies in London and Oslo.
In 2001 he went to live in Norway and began studying the art of linocutting.
His first prints were of local views and then he turned his hand to quirky humour and in 2004 two of his 'dirty habit' prints were elected to hang in Sorlandsutstillingen, an exhibition that toured Southern Norway.
In 2005 Chris returned to the UK and began to specialise in wildlife subjects.
While some of his linocuts have a conventional format, Chris has developed a collage-style of printing where several smaller images butt up against each other to make a larger, final picture. Some of these complicated linocuts have been exhibited in London with the Society of Wildlife Artists.
Chris lives and works in the Forest of Dean.
