“Experimental and deeply emotional, my art bursts with rich textures, vibrant colors, and dynamic movement. I draw influence from everything around me—nature, diverse color palettes, intricate textures, and the daily physical pain I face all weave into the fabric of my creations. Utilizing a variety of media, my passion lies in layering and applying paint alongside different materials, resulting in profoundly textured pieces. In the wake of significant loss over the past few years, my current work channels my exploration of grief, capturing its multifaceted essence—the good, the bad, the ugly, and all nuances in between. Through the lens of my own struggles with grief and chronic pain, I aim to inspire others on their journeys.”

If you like color and texture, then I’m definitely your girl! I hope you’ll come by and see what I’ve been working on during this year @austinstudiotour

Hey y’all! I’m Cristina. I am an abstract mixed media artist. I’m a born and raised Austinite, currently living in Buda, where I reside with my husband and twin daughters. Along with painting, I also teach art classes from my studio, Studio 303.
My work is highly textured, full of color, emotion and movement. I’m influenced and inspired by everything around me. I work with several different types of media, and love to experiment with layering and laying down paint and various materials, often using recycled papers, cardboard and other items, that result in beautifully highly textured pieces. Having dealt with a tremendous amount of loss the past few years, my current body of work focuses on grief and what that can look like. By working through my own grief, and history with chronic pain I hope to inspire others along the way.
I hope you’ll join my self and fellow @southaustincreatives for this years @austinstudiotour we have so much great stuff in store for you!
