About Chris Arlidge

 

My latest series of traditional art, oils on canvas.

Hi, my name is Chris Arlidge

I’m a graphic designer, digital artist, and UX professional with over two decades of experience crafting meaningful user experiences and visually compelling brands.

Since beginning my design career in 1999, I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the Okanagan’s leading digital agencies, collaborating with clients both locally and internationally. Currently, I bring my passion for design and usability to Acro Media Inc. in Kelowna, BC, where I serve as a UX and Creative Designer.

Design, for me, is more than a career—it’s a lifelong pursuit of creativity. Outside of my professional work, I’m continually exploring artistic expression through both traditional and digital media. My paintings have been exhibited at the Kelowna Art Gallery (member exhibit), the Rotary Centre for the Arts, and the Okanagan Regional Library. My digital artwork has earned international recognition, with awards and features in Expose 2 and D’Artist by Ballistic Publishing, as well as New Masters of Photoshop by Friends of ED.

Regardless of the medium, my goal remains the same: to create work that resonates, inspires, and connects.

I am always creating, whether painting or digital art. My traditional works have been seen at the Kelowna Art Gallery (member exhibit), the Rotary Center for the Arts, and the Okanagan Regional Library (Kelowna). My digital art has won awards and has been published in internationally circulated books, including Expose 2 (Ballistic Publishing), D’Artist (Ballistic Publishing), and New Masters of Photoshop (Friends of ED).
