Christine Pressburger from Yarmouth Waterfront Gallery on Vimeo.
Christine was born in Manchester, England, lived in a number of places and settled in Nova Scotia eleven years ago. Her career has been also varied – as a health professional, the owner of the Academy Tea Room and now devoting herself to painting.
She has been involved in the arts since she was five as a dancer, actress, theatre director and artist. Christine is a world traveller, but her most creative process takes place at her home in Port Maitland overlooking the Gulf of Maine. As a result her paintings are eclectic in subject, style and varied in medium.
She has studied with several teachers such as Joy Laking, Jean Pederson, Maggie Schmidt-Mandell, Will Rogers and Brian Atyeo. – developing her style in oil, watercolour & mixed media. She is passionate about art and as a result her work is vibrant, colourful and expresses Christine’s emotional reaction to time, place and subject.
