Marilyn Monroe Original Painting by Christian Chapman Art in Gold Coast

From Organic Beginnings Stems One of Australia’s Leading Artistic Talents From an early age, Christian watched his artist mother paint stunning portraits and nature scenes, subconsciously absorbing her artistic skills...and so, the seed of art was implanted in the young artist. Growing up surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of New Zealand’s Southern Alps, Christian was inspired by this vast natural world. Spending much of his time surfing with his twin brother, he developed a strong and lifelong affinity for the ocean, while remaining deeply connected to the earth. Upon moving to Australia in his early twenties, Christian began refining his artistic techniques. Before long, he had established his name with gallery representation across the country and soon after he garnered the attention of art critics around the world. Since then, Christian has held numerous exhibitions and sold hundreds of original paintings to international art collectors. Christian’s passion lies in creating exquisite, realistic portraits that encapsulate the exact likeness of a person with flawless accuracy, and powerful majestic ocean themes that capture the raw energy of the ocean. Meanwhile his passion for music can be seen in his head-turning, high-decibel musician portraits that perfectly represent the larger-than-life characters of his musical subjects. It is rare to find an artist who displays such a diverse talent, with a unique and unparalleled ability to create exceptionally beautiful art that brings pleasure and joy to all who behold it.
