Gwen has been exploring vivid
color in her newest pieces,
exagerating the natural colors
seen in the world, you will
see this in works such as
"Midnight with Victoria" and
"Sunset in Ritas Wake" and
with the most recent abstract
"Réve Rouge". Look for more
exciting vivid color pieces
from Gwen in the near future
as she has several already
that are in process. This new
vivid color series has been
exciting for Gwen as it is
color that often draws her to
others work and she has truly
been enjoying the application
of raw but sensitive strong
color in each piece.

Gwen wants you to know a
little about what inspires her
so that you may have some
understanding of the direction
of Gwens work. I am sure that
it is clear that Gwen likes to
paint water lilies, although
her depictions of the water
lillies is quite different
than those that have come
before her, but perhaps what

Hi Christine, I am a self taught artist in my beginning years as well. I love your attitude to your work and being creative and totally agree that copying famous works is a great way to learn after all that is how the great Masters spent their afternoons when they were students, it was part of their studies to replicate previous great works, it helped the student understand different styles and methods and also gain understanding, it allows you to learn so much about painting. The Louvre in Paris supports this way of learning and issues permits to students wanting to study in this manner. Keep up the great attitude and I wish you continued success. Most sincerely, Jody.

What beautiful art! I love the way this art makes me feel -- happy! The colors and subject matters are so pleasant. Even though I believe this artist has talent to do many styles; I believe her talent in the graphite portrait as in Prince is outstanding. I have known this artist for years; since she was a child. I can tell you that she was born with this talent and has been able to make remarkable replicas and imaginative portaits since she was a little girl without any training. It just comes naturally. Keep up the outstanding work Christine.

keep painting, it's a good start but you should consider taking an evening class or something, it'll help u find your own voice. by the way, your hot! got any more pictures of yourself?

Dwayne Hickman

Mary Jane
I'm very amazed with your collection. Your use of all those beautiful colors only indicates your life is good. I'm so proud to know you. I will start my little savings to purchase one this year. You go Girl!And for that so call artist that thinks your hot, it is evident that he is not looking for only art work. Be careful of those kind. You deserve respect.

Joseph
I've been watching your work for several years and enjoy all the different styles you use... your latest one Awakening is awesome, and original. I look foward to your new paintings as each one seems to express the enjoyment it gives you to paint, and the happiness it brings to yourself and others, keep up the good work...wish u lots of happiness and love.

I remember taking art with you in Junior High. WOW look at you now! I'm so Impressed. I love your new paintings. I shared them with a friend and she loved them too.

Monica Joy
Your work is beyond beautiful. I especially like Awakening and Valentine Wishes. They are so soft and sweet. I have seen your talent blossom over the past few years and can not wait to see what the years ahead hold for you. How you find time produce such works of art in the midst of your busy schedule baffles me. Keep up the wonderful work.

David Patterson
Hi Christine, thanks for the nice comments in the Discussion Forums area. The Seascape painting is also my favorite. My favorite of yours is Valentine Wishes - I love the vibrant colors throught the painting. Sorry it had to come down to stress that made you start to paint. Good luck to you Christine!

Matthew McClellan
