Delamore Art - Every Day in May - 1030 - 1630

Chris Sampson was born in Bristol, where drawing and painting was central to his activities, strongly stimulated by the immediate urban environment. A Fine Art BA at Cardiff College of Art followed by a Post Graduate Art Teacher’s Certificate preceded a teaching post at a large community college on the Southern edge of Dartmoor and a role as Principal Subject Tutor to students from Exeter University, Graduate School of Education. The change of environment was reflected in the subject matter of his painting which is now mainly focused on local land, coastal and water-scape.
