Artist Statement
"Painting is a very spiritual and cathartic process for me. It's not just about a picture, but rather an emotional journey. I want the viewer to experience the atmosphere, the mood and that moment in time. As I paint, the emotions of sadness, joy, love, and hate manifest themselves in a very real sense. The artwork becomes a document of the subject, my thoughts and surroundings.”


Biography
Christine began her career as a designer for American Greeting Cards after receiving a BFA from Miami University. After additional graduate work, an MA in education, and teaching in various venues, Christine realized her greatest joy was teaching in the public school setting where she remained for 30 years.
Now retired, Christine is fulfilling her dream as a distinguished artist. She continues to develop her personal technique as her work ever changes and grows in strength and personality. She is a signature member of Transparent Watercolor Society, Watercolor West, Pennsylvania Watercolor Society and Ohio Watercolor Society. She has had paintings published in many of the Splash: The Best of Watercolor, North Light Books Series. She won Honorable Mention in the 2017 Watermedia Showcase featured in the April 2017 edition of Watercolor Magazine.
