Abstract Paintings, Serene Drawings, and Nature Photographs
About CHRISTINA
Artist’s Statement:
Being naturally creative early on, my first “teaching” experience was giving art lessons to my neighborhood elementary school friends. Though on the college track in high school, I always managed to squeeze in art courses and went on to major in art in college. With a BA in Art Education and an M.Ed. in Educational Technology, I have been able to meld the best of both worlds – the creativity of the arts with the tools of technology.
Over the years I have taught art and facilitated workshops for schools, colleges, galleries, libraries and the like. More recently I have been focusing on my own art and I am exhibiting my work more frequently.
The more I create, the more ideas I have for new directions in which my art may go. I am presently experimenting with textural effects which sometimes include the incorporation of three-dimensional objects in my paintings. I am also developing a Mandala Series that allows me to reconstruct my artworks and photographs in new symmetrical ways using the computer.
