Artist celebrating Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall

Chris Stone BA (Hons) – Original Landscape Paintings Inspired by Devon & Cornwall

Hello, I’m Chris Stone, a Plymouth-based artist creating original, mainly small-scale landscape paintings inspired by Devon and Cornwall. My work focuses on places that are often overlooked—the everyday quiet corners and familiar views that are ignored or taken for gtranted, yet rich with character and memory.

I have painted for many years and hold a First Class BA (Hons) degree in Painting, Drawing and Printmaking from Arts University Plymouth, awarded in 2024. I was also awarded the Fresh Talent Prize in 2024 by Brownston Gallery, Devon. Alongside my studio practice, I also take part in community art projects in my local area.

I am drawn to the relationship between painting and photography. Many of my works are inspired by the visual language of the traditional picture postcard—a souvenir that captures a feeling or moment in time, often presenting a slightly heightened or romanticised version of reality.

All of my artwork is based on locations I know well, informed by memory, on-site sketches and photographs. I work across a range of media, including watercolour, ink, acrylic and gouache, with a particular love for traditional watercolour painting on paper. I also enjoy experimenting with alternative surfaces such as Yupo and photographic papers, which allow for looser, more impressionistic results.

My original paintings are one-of-a-kind artworks, handmade in the UK. They are ideal as unique gifts, souvenirs of Devon and Cornwall, or small original artworks for the home.Selected works are also available as affordable reproduction prints or greetings cards.

Packaging & Delivery

Paintings are sold unframed unless otherwise stated, to reduce shipping costs and minimise the risk of damage.
Unmounted works are protected with additional cardboard padding. Smaller paintings are supplied mounted or with mount options.

Artwork is posted flat in reinforced envelopes via Royal Mail tracked postage. Greetings cards are mailed by standard second class post to reduce costs to the customer.

I aim to be environmentally conscious and will use recycled packaging where appropriate.

Please check individual listings for exact dimensions, as my artwork varies in size.
