Artwork from 2000-2009 by Christopher Walker
Artist Christopher Walker was born in Montreal, Quebec. As a child, his oil paintings depicting the Quebec rural landscape gave birth to his love and dedication towards art and the environment. A traditional approach along with a distinctive, contemporary style stemming from his unique yet poetic observations of the human condition and the environment make Walker's art a unique and progressive format of realism.
On August 22, 1994, the C.C.G.S. Louis S. St. Laurent and the U.S.C.G.S. Polar Sea icebreakers entered history as the first North American surface vessels to reach the North Pole. Walker is now in the Canadian Archives as ship's artist and his work depicting this expedition has been featured on the AandE Network.
His paintings can be found in international private and corporate collections including England, Germany, New Zealand, Japan, Norway and the United States. Walker continues his conceptual development at his studio on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
