Chas Hauxby

Biography

Chas was born in Northern England and has lived in Western Australia for the last twenty years. He is a photographer, painter, has run a successful screen printing business, sculptor, etcher, and more recently creator and seller of high-resolution digital images. He has numerous works with commissioned clients, odd pieces in exhibitions, and enjoys entering art competitions.

Chas believes that art should be bold, say something; make the viewer think, cry, laugh, get angry... in short, evoke an emotional response to the spirit in which the art was intended and created. Some of his works are consequently very confrontational. He loves satire and believes it to be one of the few ways that politicians, in particular, can be made to answer for their stupidity and unapologetic mistakes.

The freedom to speak, print, and publish are fundamental to building a free civilized society.... He thanks you in advance for looking at his portfolio of images.
