A DYING CRAFT — Kept Alive
From NYC to
the Rockies
Chris Krieg Arts brings a legacy of New York City mastery to the Evergreen landscape. Trained in the rigorous traditions of classical sign painting and large-scale muralism, he specialize in transforming commercial spaces and private estates into vibrant works of fine art. He has worked as a professional sign painter and muralist for nearly five decades — a living link to a craft that once lined every main street in America.
For 40 years that work has been rooted in Evergreen, Colorado — painted across storefronts, vehicles, and walls throughout the Front Range and Denver Community.Â

All oil based alcid enamels and fine ground pigments oils. Mineral spirits, Boar bristle brushes, enamels etc.
His tools are the same ones the old-timers used: oil-based enamels, fine ground pigments, natural hair brushes, and varnishes. No vinyl. No shortcuts. The ground pigments are suspended in linseed oils and thinned with mineral spirits — the same medium masters have used for five centuries. Layers are built slowly, dried properly, and sealed with traditional varnishes and alcid enamels that deepen color and protect the surface for generational, legacy based works.Â
