When asked about the inspiration behind “Figuring It Out” Christine said “When I create I rarely begin with a specific intent - I want my mind to stay as free as a child's choosing the right color from a box filled with 100 choices. The conceptual theory within this work is life's journey for both viewer and artist. While we would like to travel paths that are smooth and easygoing, life does not always present itself that way. During life's journey we often find rocks and ladders obstructing our way."  

Congratulations to the artist for this continued recognition.
