Chris West (Brenda’s Ursuline Academy classmate!) grew up surrounded by art; her father was a well-known painter. Chris’s successful career took her in interesting directions, but art was always calling. So, in her 50s she left the corporate world and took up a variety of art media. Chris quickly earned a reputation for her vision and creativity, and her ability to engage the viewer with each piece in a personal way. You can see Chris’s extraordinary paintings and collages at the following galleries/museums:
