"There are special men and
women who caress each others dreams, allowing safely new visions to
happen and new universes to come to be, where beauty abounds and is the way... the
only way they see and because of this there is magic..an ecstacy come
to be." Christine
Hello and welcome to my website, thank you for your time. I am a self taught, native born California artist raised by and at the beach in Long Beach with a wonderful, fun and creative family. Two girls and two boys. My dad and siblings worked at the space program and my father was instrumental in helping to get the first man on the moon. I have an incredible talented and beautiful mother who sings like an angel, she has been and is in many singing groups and is a soloist, she is just incredible, and could of been a giant star if she wasn't our mom and raised us with so much love and wonderfulness. I am the mother of two wonderful people a girl and a boy, and a grandmother to three now, two boys and one girl. I have been on my own since I was 16 and pretty much taught myself to paint and draw.
I have created art all of my life. One day, my mom set up a easel and she was painting a oil painting and asked if I would like to try it. She gave me all her art supplies after she saw what I did. I won some regional contest for a painting I did of Mahatma Gandhi when I was 11 years old, he was a inspiration to me even then as a peace activist. I painted a painting of Jesus praying in the garden and I drew lots of Indian children and babies, animals and even cartoons were fun to do. I am also a writer of books for children and poetry which are here to read. I do sculptures called the Elfun's and the Whimsey's, create building design concepts, logos, murals, etc. Soon I will be adding my major pieces when they are photographed..so bookmark me and check back in! They are the best ones I think, 4 x 4 and 4 x 6 foot pieces on masonite panels. COMING SOON!!!
I have had many art shows worldwide, huge visionary art shows in California at the Whole Life Expos and also put on by Atlantia created by Abraham with the top visionary artists in America where I was the featured artist. One show, called Seven Days of the Goddess was nothing less than a phenomenon in the history of art shows in Los Angeles. The show we did to save the dolphins was also amazing, people like Wyland the most famous whale/dolphin sea artist there is. Famous for his Whaling Walls to save them. We were there as the featured artists and we both were doing paintings live. I have so many great friends and memories. I have had many one woman shows and shows in a museum in Germany both in Hamburg and Berlin. I have shared my art with thousands of people in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Holland, Maui, Canada, Italy, Germany, England and Mexico.
I work in many mediums including acrylics, water colors, oils, pen and ink, pastels, pencil, and even spray paints! I love to create different styles, it is fun to see what comes with different moods I am in. I am also an international face and body painter, I have painted at least 3000 people. I have been very fortunate to paint at many stars parties like the time with Jack Nicholson who gave me the high sign (fun story there) and many more. Some of my art pieces are in the collections of Elizabeth Taylor, Barbra Streisand, Shirley Mac Claine, Carrie Fisher, Julie Andrews, Prince Albert of Monaco, Tracy Ulman, and Olivia Newton John and hundreds of wonderful and beautiful people that have bought my art..I am so, so grateful, that they did and that what I made is part of their world, I go on through my creations like all artists.
There are two you tubes here of some of my paintings made as gifts for me by two of my art admirers as surprises for me on my space There is also a face painting one that I made.
It was my first try, just like making this web site was too! I have a great my space and would love to have you for a friend. You can find me in the contact space. Thank you so very much for looking, you have to scroll down on each page to see everything.
Blessings to you and your loved ones,
