Chris Collingwood
Chris Collingwood has produced a wealth of impressive artwork and military prints from the Napoleonic War, American Civil War, English Civil War, WWI, WWII and a variety of portraits of great military leaders, He also has produced superb paintings of Pirates which are a particular favourite of his. These superb paintings are also available as signed limited edition military prints for you to enjoy.
Chris Collingwood's super realistic style, using oils, brilliantly reflects the techniques, passion and depth of the old masters. He has a particular love of portraiture, which his new portraits of Wellington and William of Orange certainly reflect along with others from the English Civil war his love of the subject. He is also fascinated by the awful romance of weaponry and war. Chris uses traditional Dutch paints made today, as in 1664, and is meticulous in his research and attention to detail, so scarce in our modern throw away society. Sir Anthony Van Dyke, William Dobson, Sir Peter Lely and Fortunio Matania played a vital part in Chris's formative years. He also is much influenced by Meissonier and De Neuville
