ABOUT CHRISTINE
For many years, I have been a lover and a serious, award-winning artist. Initially I discovered the joy of using the millinery art medium of egg tempera, casein and gold leaf. Workshops help me progress, capture the cannons of iconography while reading about the extraordinary life of the saints when drawing icons. The result was a profound enrichment of design, styles, customs and history.
I am a passionate traveler and as I cross frontiers, I record my adventures in travel diaries/ carnets de voyage and sketchbooks. Of course, it improves my drawing skills and use of color while giving life to my sketches. Later on, turning pages of my journals is a wonderful way to travel back into time.
A painting is like a song, sometimes it is a success, others have to be revisited. So while painting, I am dancing with the stars. Brush strokes and colors fly on my canvas.
As a multimedia type of artist, I challenge myself with different subjects, glowing colors and a touch of surprise. May the colorful expression of my work enliven the viewer's heart, spirit.
Recently, I was honored to become one of the 17th artists to decorate a 5-foot-long, fiberglass turtle with the Greek theme of: The Winged Victory of Samothrace.
Follow www.PalmCoastTurtleTrail.com to discover the public places where the turtles are located in Flagler County, and discover my turtle in Bunnell at the Justice Department.
