I am a self-taught Photographic Artist, residing in the Central Spa District of Central Victoria, near Melbourne, Australia.

I don’t know what I would do if I couldn’t create, it’s as natural to me as breathing, especially now that we have the means to achieve great art with digital photography. It’s so exciting and I feel that my creativity has finally come to fruition with these fantastic digital tools.

Quotes from some of my peers:

“With the fine touch of an artist and the visual acuity of a professional, she creates art from the natural surroundings … and it speaks in tones of pure brilliance to all those who partake.” - RJ Heller, Writer & Photographer, U.S.A.

"Chris Armytage brings us images that glow with incomparable energy and compel us to look at the world through new eyes. Beauty, luminosity, tenderness, power; all present in Chris' work. It's a delight to see." - Robin King, Artist, U.S.A.

“Chris’s work is imbued with a subtle feeling of emotion…they are not mere photographic recordings of an event, but an encapsulated and precious ‘moment in time’...." - P.Fowler – Director, sculptor, photographer (U.K.)
