Christina’s  beautiful,  expressive  paintings  grace  the  walls  of  hundreds  of   collectors,  and  can  be  found  in  galleries  throughout  the  Southeast.  A  full-­‐time   artist  since  2002,  she  was  chosen  as  an  Emerging  Artist  by  “Art  &  Antiques   Magazine”  early  in  her  career,  and  since  then  her  work  has  been  shown  in   exhibits,  and  featured  in  decorator  show  homes,  on  HGTV,  and  in  magazines.

Texture  is  a  very  important  element  in  Christina’s  mixed  media  paintings.   In  addition  to  multiple  layers  of  paint,  Christina  also  mixes  in  charcoal,   graphite  and  oil  pastels  to  add  energy,  interest,  and  dimension.  Stylistically,   areas  of  intense  activity  are  often  juxtaposed  with  areas  of  calmness  in  her   compositions,  which  creates  the  emotion  and  mood  in  her  work.  Color   palettes  lean  towards  soft  and  modern,  but  edgy  brights  pop  up,  too!
Christina  grew  up  in  Europe.  She  studied  Fine  Art  at  Skidmore  College,  where   she  fell  in  love  with  Abstract  Expressionism.  After  graduating  with  Highest   Honors,  she  attended  The  Portfolio  Center  for  Advertising.  She  was  an  art   director  for  more  than  a  decade,  working  at  agencies  on  both  coasts,  and   gaining  an  appreciation  for  design  concepts  that  often  make  their  way  into  the   structure  of  her  paintings.  

The artist lives in Georgia, with her husband and son.
