About Me
- Christine Bray
- Atlanta, Georgia, United States
- Make a beautiful statement with every painting. That is my motto. It could be a color, shape, texture or object in a painting that pulls the whole painting together. No matter if it is an old masters type of a painting, landscape, seascape or portrait I am always looking for a certain energy to come through my paintings. Throughout my life I have been encouraged to create. During college I found myself interested in Textile Design and graduated with a BFA in Textile Design from Georgia State University. I have over 20 years’ experience in the textile field. From designing throw blankets, rugs, apparel, paper goods to upholstery material. Needing an additional creative outlet, I started taking oil painting classes locally and eventually studying with many internationally known artists as David Leffel, Daniel Keys, Sarah Lamb, Qiang Huang, Scott Conary, Robert Johnson, Nancy Franke, Karen Appleton and Bill Davidson among others. This eventually led me to art groups, small venues and then to an emerging artist show, which propelled my art career. I am represented by The Studio Gallery.

It's interesting to see how easily you appear to switch from the loose painting of your DSFDF panels to the sleek realism of your main work-- I'm impressed. Wish I could do the same. Love that Gold Vase.
It's probably because I am a textile designer and all kinds of designs are needed from realistic to abstract. Thank you for your comment.
