No need to bring supplies or materials – just bring your imagination! Please no electronics or toys allowed in classroom.
Instructor Bio:
We always hear the term “life imitating art,” and just like her art, Cristina’s life is always adapting. Cristina’s mother knew she was imaginative from an early age, if the hidden crayons in her clothing were any indication. Encouraged to explore her creativity, without damaging walls and furniture, she began her art journey with paint by numbers and watching good ole Bob Ross.
She pursued a career in interior design. Cristina was a hospitality designer for 12 years designing both chain and boutique hotels across the US. After feeling the industry burnout and The Great Recession, she accepted a career change to become an event coordinator for a local university. After suffering a brain injury in 2014, she knew her life would have to change again. Art became her therapy, her words. At that moment, she defied her old college advisor and pursued a career in her art.
Cristina has been teaching since 2018. Loving every minute of being a teacher and starving artist. She believes in learning everyday while having fun because life is too short. She lives in Marietta with her fur children, a pit bull named Georgia and black cat, Nyla. Feel free to follow her on Instagram @artpeace722.
