Born in London, England, Chris Gollon was a technically innovative painter, bringing both Old Master techniques and printmaking methods into the medium of acrylic.[3][4] Until his death in 2017, he had a 19-year interest in artistic boundary crossing, often using music or collaborating directly with musicians and songwriters.[5][4] He lived and worked in Surrey. He regularly exhibited in London and Monmouth with IAP Fine Art. He had many solo museum exhibitions in the United Kingdom and has works in museum collections including the British Museum.[6][7]
