ARTIST'S STATEMENT
​
“I am inspired by my own travels. Places and people offer me new scenarios and feelings to pour into my painting. Europe, USA, Asia, all cultures suggest diversity, to which I want to be the eye witness. On the other hand, art is a lens that translates the outside world for me to understand it and connect to humanity.
My way to achieve this is either paint on location, or take notes and draw sketches when I travel. I strive to work by memory, which requires a deeper observation; I select only what really reso-nates within. If I use my own photos I draw an edited version of the subject. Then I decide my own color arrangement, according to my mood and pre-mix a limited number of colors on my palette. At this point the brushwork should be (or at least appear) the easiest and most effortless. In other words, the painting should paint itself!
Ultimately I want the viewer to get lost in a timeless story. It's my highest reward. And a bet every single time.”

Feature Artist Bio
By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature the second of two 12-piece exhibitions of works by Canadian painter
Christine E.S. Code (born 1978 in Saskatchewan, Canada).
Christine E. S. Code has been painting professionally since 2006. She calls herself a painter of both light and dark; finding the beauty in all things, even while exploring darker subjects. Christine's paintings convey a strong mood and atmosphere, revealing various styles, including realism, impressionism and tonalism.
Christine's paintings are usually created in one sitting, alla prima. Primarily self-taught, this prolific practice has resulted in over 900 paintings created and sold to date. Even with three children, she strives to paint almost everyday. She admits that painting has become somewhat of an obsession.
CES paintings are collected both locally and internationally with works held in private collections throughout Canada, the United States, Australia, Belgium, England, Germany and Norway.
Christine's paintings can be found online (www.paintingsbyces.com) and she frequently exhibits at local venues and beyond.
