About the tutor: Chris Vidal is a contemporary realist artist who lives and works in Sydney, Australia. His interest in arts started from very young however his path to become a professional artist was not direct. At the age of 13 he attended and studied classical drawing at the School of Arts, Palazzo de LaSalle, Valletta, Malta.

His initial work was inspired by artists from the Renaissance and Baroque eras such as Caravaggio and Rembrandt. His interest in the art of painting remained alive along the years and although time was limited he was trying to find the opportunity to experiment with various media especially acrylics. His current body of work mostly consists of various representations of the Australian landscape inspired by places where he visits. His style of work is influenced by the American landscape painters of the Hudson River School and by the Australian impressionists of the Heidelberg movement as well as from a number of American and Australian contemporary artists.

From his home studio in Sydney he produces a continuous stream of new works and commissioned paintings. His works are now found in private and corporate collections in Australia and Internationally.
