Christine Frisbee

“To paint is to show a secret part of who you are.” Christine Frisbee

As a child I was always enthralled with art. I loved to create and still do. It is my passion. I love traditional art but am drawn towards modern and abstract art as well. Painting in both traditional and contemporary styles might send confusing messages, but it is allowing me to discover the real and best painter I can be. The work to transition a concept into all styles of paintings of the same subject stretches you to see what you can achieve.

My new work is abstract studies of colors and shapes. It is dramatic and bright. It will hopefully bring happiness and imagination into your home or office.

Education

Christine began painting at 14 and continued until she had her first solo show in 2010. Christine received her Bachelor of Arts at Fairfield University, CT and graduated Cum Laude. She went on to receive an MBA from University of Connecticut’s Executive Program. She studied art at The Art Students League and The National Arts Museum in New York and Silvermine Guild Arts in New Canaan, CT.

Over the years she has been affiliated with the National Association of Women Artists, Silvermine Arts and The Carriage Barn in New Canaan, CT, Birdsey Gallery, Osterville, MA and Bedford Frame and Gallery in Bedford, NY. Katonah Art Museum and the Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM). She spends her winters in Bedford, NY and her summers on Cape Cod.

Christine enjoyed painting in a more traditional style until recently. Presently she concentrates on abstract expressionism. She is presently influenced by Helen Frankenthaler for her interesting compositions, Rothko, for his outstanding use of color and de Kooning for his complex compositions.
