Christopher St.Leger was born in northwest Indiana in 1973. He studied architecture in Ohio and in Budapest, Hungary, and now lives in central Texas. Since the late nineties, Christopher St.Leger’s paintings have explored the enigmatic connection of mood and place. Snapshot sources for his work capture fleeting images of those parts of the world the artist traverses seasonally. He transforms these images with his loose rendering style, an attitude of experimentation which may stem from teaching himself to paint, into something perhaps personal, but also ambient and more enduring. Each painting is approached as if with a question that invokes a dialogue between the artist and his surroundings, between a cautious being and an irrational force.
