Christine is influenced by those iconic Australian colours of blue skies, red dusty soil and hot summer days at the beach.
For many years She lived in the remote West Australian Goldfields and Pilbara region of Western Australia and that wonderful landscape still features in her work. Walking on the Mangrove flats she was captivated by the marks and patterns left in the sand by the outgoing tide. These patterns are the inspiration for her abstract work in paintings and ceramics.
Christine’s fantasy paintings of children and their dogs playing in the outstretched limbs of Boab trees come from my time in Broome.
