Escape to the beautiful Canadian outdoors alomg with a child building a sand castle at the beach, playing "King of the Castle" in the park, or, as in "The 24", attempting to climb the insurmountable -  the War Memorial in Ottawa, Ontario.

Portraiture work goes hand in hand with figurative painting, so it is only natural Christine also accepts portraiture commissions. Christine always does her best to make the client have a happy experience- and is honoured to bring the spirit and  dignityas well as the likeness of the subject to the canvas. Christine was awarded the larger than life portrait commission of Dr. Oscar Peterson which now hangs in the Living Arts Centre , Mississauga,  the  Dean of Dentistry portrait (McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada), an RCMP officer , and a Lorne Scott military portrait.
