Artist Profile
Chris Valentine
Limited Edition Movie Posters & Art Prints
Chris Valentine has established himself as a premier contemporary movie poster artist, working directly with major studios including Lucasfilm, Warner Bros., and Disney to create official limited edition prints. Based on his active social media presence as @christhevalentine and @Th3Valentine, Valentine maintains strong ties with The Moor Art Gallery, which serves as his primary outlet for official limited edition pop culture prints and posters distributed worldwide.
Valentine's distinctive approach centers on oil paint illustrations that bring a classical fine art sensibility to iconic cinema. His Star Wars work showcases this technique beautifully, including limited variant editions like his numbered R25 print (edition of 150) and his striking interpretation of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Beyond the galaxy far, far away, Valentine has tackled other cinematic classics, notably his Heat poster, released as a 24" x 36" fine art screen print in a limited artist proof edition priced at $150.
Collectors prize Valentine's work for its combination of studio authenticity and artistic craftsmanship. His limited edition runs typically range from 110-150 copies, creating genuine scarcity in the alternative poster market. The artist's oil paint technique sets his prints apart from the digital artwork dominating contemporary poster art, while his official studio relationships ensure his pieces carry the legitimacy that serious collectors demand. Valentine's prints represent the intersection of traditional illustration techniques and modern pop culture fandom, making them highly sought after acquisitions.
