I'm by no means a full time artist, all though I do try to paint whenever I can, so when I get a little nibble of publicity it's a really nice surprise! Here's a little profile Rebel Imprint Magazine did.

THE ART OF CHRIS PANATIER:

Chris Panatier is a renaissance man who likes to paint engaging images  on wood canvases while listening to heavy metal songs. He is able to channel the intense and brutal lyrics of Pig Destroyer and Mastodon and create emotionally loaded portraits.

In a word he would define his work as "heavy" and we would agree but only in the most complimentary way.  Residing in Dallas, Texas Chris is an up and coming star in the world of art. You can find him at  www.panatier.com and www.facebook.com/chrispanatier
