"Follow the Light" was inspired by recent thoughts in the new year about finding your true mission and purpose in life. The abstract uses colors of the lifeline of life in humans and animals. Our life within is drawn to light. Our happiness is restored with light. Our productiveness is usually attained when it is light. With energy and grace we reach up to the light.

Christine Frisbee

United States  • 1951

To be an artist is to constantly evolve, as in the case of contemporary artist, Christine Frisbee. Her artwork tells a story through color and composition and harmony. The total brush strokes on the canvas reflect the character and total being of who we are and how we live. The colors and shapes create an atmosphere and aura. The large strokes are the emotions that drive the forces in lives and the smaller lines, shapes and flickers are the influences that create thoughts and reactions. She achieves this on a canvas with character and personality….to show you and make you think and feel without speaking.


The process that I take is intuitive whether I am thinking of water or forests or architecture or homes. I paint in a quiet sunny studio without music. I feel I can hear the colors. My best work comes when I hear what I should paint. Coming from a large family the environment in which we live and how we live our lives is of upmost importance in my mind. I am conscious of how we speak and react to people around us. I attempt to relate this in my paintings with color and harmony. The large strokes are emotions that drive us and the smaller lines, shapes and stokes are the influences that create our thoughts and reactions. The total brush strokes on the canvas reflect our character and total being. The colors and shapes are who we are. It is a canvas of our personality. That is how I express my art.

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, graduating cum laude. She went on to receive an MBA from University of Connecticut's Executive Program. 
Most of her adult life Christine raised five children. She went back to get a graduate degree after losing a child to leukemia and started working for the Yale School of Medicine as the Coordinator of the Unrelated Bone Marrow Transplant program, and then became the Administrator for the Yale School of Medicine Bone Marrow and Transplant Program. After leaving that she resumed her painting. 
She studied art at The Art Students League and The National Arts Museum in New York and Silvermine Guild Arts in New Canaan, CT. She has studied with Joseph McGurl, Jonathan McPhillips, Peter Bonner, Dimitri Wright and Dennis Rafferty. In sculpture she studied with Aslan and Michael Keropian.
