In 1979, after graduating from Art Center with honors, Chris heard that legendary illustrators Charles White III and David Willardson were starting a studio and looking for young talent. Chris’ persistence paid off and he was hired. After months of sketching he was finally assigned to paint the marquee art for The Mountain Men
