Having trained as a graphic designer in her native Wales, widely-travelled Chester’s style has progressed from her Celtic inspired detailed works of flora and fauna to large format works and murals. Her move to the Canadian prairies brought about a love of the grasslands and expansive skies, increasing dramatically the size and format of her paintings.
Chester’s technique of heavily textured grasses against smooth vast skies place her work on the border between realistic and abstract, and she has produced many commissioned mural-sized pieces on these themes.
