About Christine - Christine Lombardi has been drawing for as long as she can remember. From a very young age, she created special cards for family and friends. Eventually, her work became highly detailed, and her intricate Christmas cards were an annual treat enjoyed by many. Christine was born and raised in Danbury, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Design from Western Connecticut State University. Through the years, Christine continued to focus her creative energies on her illustrations, developing her own set of greeting cards in 2010. It wasn't until the spring of 2018 that she decided to try her hand at painting, something she hadn't done since her college years. It didn't take long for her to discover her innate ability for painting the sea. Inspired by childhood vacations at the shore, she continues to enjoy portraying the beauty of the ocean in her work.
