Dr. Chris Watson is a full-time clinical psychologist living in London, Ontario. He is a husband and proud father of three children, ages 13, 11, and 9. Chris first started painting at age 36 after a request from his two-year old daughter for a picture of a bumblebee. A love of painting quickly emerged from this initial artwork. Since that first painting, Chris has become a prolific self-taught artist, producing over 1000 landscape paintings in the past decade.

Many of his paintings depict the beauty of London and the surrounding areas of Southwestern Ontario.
