Art has been a part of Christine's life since early childhood. The fascination with drawing the human face began in her late teens. After discovering soft pastels in a drawing class, she devoted herself to soft pastels and portraiture. Although self-taught in portraiture, she studied the Fine Arts program at Heritage College in Gatineau. Christine has created many prominent Inductee portraits for The Skate Canada Hall of Fame such as: Sandra Bezic, Jennifer Robinson, Shae-Lynn Bourne and Victor Kraatz, Tracy Wilson and Robert McCall, Jeffrey Buttle, and Marie-France Dubreuil and Patrice Lauzon. Christine’s other art interest include photography and digital art. She is also a citizen scientist, a certified nest watcher, animal rights/climate/environmental activist.
