BIOGRAPHY

Chris Nelson is an abstract, mixed-media artist located in Barrie, Ontario. His intuitive art is a deeply personal exploration of the self that transcends traditional boundaries. As an abstract mixed-media artist, Nelson finds that intuitive creation allows him to weave together colors, textures, and forms in a way that reflects his inner landscape. It’s about embracing the flow-state, where his emotions guide each brushstroke and material choice.

​

This process transforms Nelson's art into a powerful medium for connection and growth, inviting viewers to engage with their own feelings and experiences.

​

To nurture his intuitive art approach, Nelson immerses himself in a creative process that prioritizes spontaneity and exploration. He allows his inner child to play, embracing curiosity and experimentation without the pressure of a specific outcome. This playful mindset frees Nelson to explore new techniques and materials while staying true to his artistic style.
