About

Christy is a representational artist working in both oil paint and cut paper collage. After growing up in eastern North Carolina and studying art and education at UNC Chapel Hill, she lived in DC, then Nashville, and has now returned to her college town to put down roots. While in Nashville, Christy earned her master of education at Vanderbilt, and has ten years of experience teaching art to children in Montessori schools and art museums. Since moving back to NC, she has focused on creating work in her home studio and has also developed a painting course for adults at two local art centers. Christy’s art is represented by the online artist collective, Well+Wonder, and is also available at Serena & Lily and Beaufort Linen Co.
