By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature the first of two 12-piece exhibitions of works by American landscape painter Christine Lashley (born 1967 in California, USA ).

 

Christine Lashley's impressionistic images are filled with merged color, lush brush strokes, and a sense of sparkling light. She studied in Paris at the Parsons Art Institute and the Sorbonne, and continued on to earn her BFA at Washington University in St. Louis. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and has been in a number of juried prestigious outdoor painting competitions such as Easels in Frederick, Plein Air Easton, and Telluride. Recent juried exhibits have been at the Salmagundi in New York City and Trailside Galleries in Scottsdale, AZ.

 

Her work has won numerous awards, including Best of Show for both landscape and portrait work. Her most recent award was with the Portrait Society of America. She has been featured in several publications including 'The Artist's Magazine,' the Washington Post, and North Light Books.

 

An art teacher for over 15 years, she teaches workshops locally and internationally; and is on the faculty of the Yellow Barn Studio in Glen Echo. She is a member of several juried art groups, including: the Potomac Valley Watercolorists (where she served as President), Salmagudi NYC, Oil Painters of America, Baltimore Watercolor Society, and the Washington Society of Landscape Painters.

Christine currently lives in the Washington DC area with her husband and two children.
