I contacted Chris for a stain glass piece for my brother.
From the start it was evident that Chris really cared about the
quality of his work. He revised a few sketches until he was really happy
with the concept (as was I).
The end piece is fantastic, couldn’t be happier with it. It was also a
Christmas present and Chris completed the project well ahead of time.
Thank you so much!

craftsmanship that he pours into each and every one of his pieces. The results are
beautiful. From traditional landscapes to pop culture references, Chris uses his skill and
artistry to bring these subjects to life through the medium of stained-glass.
Artbeat Studio continues to work with Chris as an artist; we have hosted a solo art
show on his behalf, published his work in our Artbeat Annual and continue to represent his
work through our public gallery space Upbeat Artworks. This gallery has an online
component as well, where we continue to sell his artwork through our website.
Chris has built genuine connections in the artistic community and has earned a
reputation as an artist who delivers impeccable craftmanship and creativity. With his
attention to detail and approachable demeanor, Chris embodies the heart of an artist. We
are continually inspired by Chris, and so thankful he is a part of the Artbeat community.

It depends on size and intricacy of the piece. A smaller 12 piece creation could take a few days. A fifty piece specimen could take weeks to months. Also the pattern itself can take a while to perfect.
Creating the pattern is a meticulous and critical process. Often the customer’s vision of what they want changes during the process. This is where I potentially do a series of drafts, striving for the customer’s satisfaction. I design the initial sketch at no cost. When
the customer has indicated that the pattern is what they want, I start the next phase which is to buy materials. Before I purchase the materials I require a down payment of 25% of the final cost. Once the project is completed the final payment is required, then I will deliver the work of art.
I create professional grade works of art, which customers treasure and I will spend more time creating a more intricate creation then my competitors. I'm looking for roughly $20 an hour for my services, which is a very competitive rate. Diversity is key. I have much
experience with making one of a kind concepts. Whether it’s a prairie scene a beautiful flower all the way to spider man, I got this!
