Born in 1968 in Vienna, Austria, is a visual artists of figurative and non-figurative art and art therapist. She lives and paints in Burgenland, Austria.
“It’s always fascinating to have a blank canvas in front of me and to dedicate myself to creating a work with all my creative being.
Joyfully immersing myself in a state without time and space – that is pure pleasure and fulfillment at the same time“, she says.
This devotion is reflected in her figurative and abstract paintings, which primarily aim to please the viewer. She receives and generates creative energy and transmits this energy to her paintings which then communicate very directly to the viewer. Sometimes at second or third glance.”
In addition to the conventional materials, she uses coffee, salt and silk and nail polish in her artworks. Her work can be described as communicative, energetic, impulsive, multi-layered, vibrant and colorful.
Ever since she was a child she loved to paint and draw and had fun expressing myself and letting off steam creatively in a variety of ways. „I showed my little works to every visitor, clipped to the clothesline in our garage. That was so much fun!“, she says.
At the invitation of Friedensreich Hundertwasser, she was a guest student in his master class at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Recently she took part in Lucia Ricelli’s intensive course at the Kunstfabrik Wien and participated in Walter Winter’s creativity days in Sittendorf. Overall she considers herself as self taught artist.
After more than 20 successful years in the pharmaceutical industry and in international retail, the path led her back to work creatively in Interior Design.
The desire, almost the urge, to express her creativity again with visual arts awoke during the lockdown phases of 2020 and since then painting has been a constant and most important part of her life.
Christine believes that everyone has a creative potential and that sometimes the ability to express oneself creatively is burried. In her CreARTivity workshops students can rediscover and reconnect with their innate creativity. This project is very close to her heart.
