Artist Bio:

Cristine Cambrea is a mostly self-taught artist who uses her intuition to guide her art.  Although she took a painting class in her first semester of college, she followed the advice of her teacher who, on the last day of class, pulled her aside and told her to stop taking art classes in order to avoid having her work institutionalized.  She promptly dropped out of school, traveled, and found her own experiences from which she could develop her art.

Serendipity led Cristine to a life as a professional artist.  As the owner of a craft import business in Montpelier, she quickly learned that the Internet was much larger than the local market.  In the process of closing her store-front to sell exclusively on-line, she was low on inventory and decided to offer her original art work as well.  Much to her surprise, sales were immediate and plentiful.  She has been working as a full-time professional artist, with collectors world-wide, ever since.

Cristine’s inventive paintings are continuously evolving.  She finds inspiration everywhere and integrates it into her work.  At the same time, Cristine’s work is easily identifiable as her own.  Her unique style integrates symbolism that can help the viewer read a painting like a story.  Windows, doors, spirit people, faces, and trees/flowers become expressions of her subconscious hopes and fears.  Looking back at her work many years after it is created; she often finds that she can see its emotional inspiration that is not clear at the time it is finished.
