Pasco County Commissioner Kathryn Starkey has generously loaned eight pieces from her private collection, featuring the works from Christopher Still's Florida House of Representatives series. Still has created ten murals commissioned by the Florida House of Representatives, showcasing the state's rich historical and natural beauty. His contributions to the arts have earned him induction into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame, and he serves as the Artist in Residence for the Florida Legislature. Additionally, Florida State University has awarded him an honorary doctorate.
Christopher Still’s paintings are celebrated for their vivid portrayal of Florida's landscapes and culture, and they can be found in prestigious institutions, including the Governor's Mansion of Florida and the Smithsonian Institution. In the Tampa Bay Area, his work is prominently displayed at St. Petersburg City Hall, Tampa International Airport, Ruth Eckerd Hall and a few other prominent locations throughout the state.
