In November 2015, Chris was asked by owner Miguel Santiago to display some of his original work at his new establishment the Beaufort Arms Hotel and Restaurant in Raglan, Monmouthshire. After an extensive refurbishment, Miguel will open his restaurant on Wednesday 9th of December. Chris will be resident artist at the venue, where he will further display a selection of his original works. Miguel, former manager/owner of the Priory, Caerleon says “I am delighted to have Chris’ works at the Beaufort Hotel and Restaurant, adding originality and colour to the atmosphere’. Paintings seen here are ‘Candle and Wine’ and ‘Enchanted Forest’.
