Christine says her pieces are fairy tales for the modern world. They are engaging enough to catch your eye again and again. Part of their charm is the tension between sweet and not so sweet.
Christine uses elements of cartoons, animation stills, dreams, and other references to weave her story. To root the pieces in the world, she uses a fairly classical visual aesthetic.
Her work is made from basswood that is cut, stacked, shaped and carved using a bandsaw, rotary tool and sander. Elements are made from various materials and added to the structure which is then painted with multiple layers of paint, graphite and drawing.
