Painter

Bio

“Every time I use my brushes, a new story is told, translating my feelings, my emotions, and my
thoughts..
With every new painting rises a new challenge: my own story to tell.
Every painting is a reflection of my deepest emotions, it carries with it a piece of me.”

At a very young age, Christine was fascinated by the art of painting. As a child and teenager, she used to draw and paint on pieces of wood that her father brought back from his carpentry shop. As an adult, and after taking a break from art, she reconnected with her passion at an Art Academy in Beirut, Lebanon.
There, she learned drawing basics, and fully immersed herself in the art of color and composition. She continues to perfect her art by widening her knowledge through different art and painting workshops and techniques. Her artwork is a reflection of her thoughts and feelings. She gets inspired from life circumstances and express herself through colors and shapes or subjects that she would love to share with others. Most of her work is oil on canvas, she is more confident with oil painting because it’s richly pigmented and has a smooth texture once blended, which is more satisfying to the eye.
The generating force behind her work is undoubtedly the love and the encouragement of her family. And knowing that there are still people in the world who truly admire Art!
