The words "stark", "powerful", "thought provoking" and "frightening" have been used to describe the paintings of Chris O'Hoski.

O'Hoski's subtlety and indirect imagery forces a thought process for both his viewers and colleagues alike.

Chris has gradually morphed his work from traditional to contemporary and back to a hybrid form of realism.

Chris O'Hoski continues to use his paintings as an emotional outlet, using Acrylic, Oil and Watercolour.
