Chris Denton

Based in New South Wales, Denton was born in Birmingham and moved to Australia in the late 1970's.

Having widely exhibited Internationally, Denton has been awarded a number of accolades including the Juror's Prize at the Footprint Biennial International Print Competition, Norwalk, USA in 2008.
