Energy of Rest Photograph

Born in 1970 in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Chris grew up in rural Stafford County, Virginia where he spent his days playing outside. At an early age he developed a love for the great outdoors and gained a sincere appreciation for the boundless beauty that is the natural environment. He studied Economics and received a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Mary Washington College in 1995, and in 2010 graduated from the New York Institute of Photography. After a decade working in the business world as a real estate entrepreneur, he decided to return to his creative roots and to dedicate his life to what truly brings him happiness. While creating fine art through photography and painting brings its own personal rewards to the artist, Chris most likes that his works allow him to share with others the beautiful world as he envisions it. Christopher Thomas Limbrick is an American fine art photographer and abstract expressionist painter. His artwork is inspired by the natural environment and created by utilizing nature’s color palette. He creates by incorporating a human feeling of a particular moment as he explores the natural elements of the earth. While observing the interplay of its masculine and feminine characteristics, he bears witness to the inherent dependence of nature to capture its contrasts. A common spiritual theme joins together his body of work that includes the “The Departure Collection” of photographs and his highly collected acrylic paintings on canvas. His photographic work has been exhibited in Fredericksburg and Richmond, Virginia and in New York City, New York. His abstract paintings have been included in both regional and national juried exhibitions. Chris seeks additional opportunities for both exhibition and representation. Christopher resides in Richmond, Virginia, "the city of art", but spends as much time as possible in the Eastern Mountains and the American Southwest where he is most inspired.
