“I am seeking. I am striving. I am in it with all my heart.” Vincent van Gogh 

My Circles

immediate

mark making

free from inhibition

full, empty, imperfect?

my circle is….

creation and just is.

Find YOU

 

Featured image: Her Gypsy Spirit 

To find you - you need to dig deeply. Do you know who you are? Not the reflection in the mirror, not what others say you are. 

Your uniqueness, your choices, experience. The path to self is narrow. The journey is hard. It takes a long time. 

You are worth it. Find yourself. Honor your - self, spirit and soul. Honor the gypsy in you.

My work, Her Gypsy Spirit, along with many others will be featured during my solo exhibition, Allegories from the Earth.

Exhibition Details:
Venue: New Visions Gallery
Address: Marshfield Clinic Marshfield, Marshfield, WI
Dates: January 14 - March 15, 2024

Feeling Connected to Everything

 

Featured image: We Are Connected

Being an artist, Creating pretty much 

Comes down To: Everything should

Change during the Process

And, you should feel that Everything is 

Connected

If you don’t feel That as an artist when you are

Creating then you 

aren’t in the work. And the work isn’t yours 

But someone else’s.

Announcement: Christine Alfrey's Artwork Selected for Naturalist Gallery Nature Exhibition

 

I'm thrilled to announce that my artwork, Periwinkle Flowers, Water's Spirit, Ms Pileated, At the End of the Rainbow, Migration Trail, Quartz Trail, Sacred Places and Along the Shore III have all been selected for a prestigious online exhibition at the Naturalist Gallery Nature Exhibition. This exhibition will run from January 19 to March 19, showcasing a diverse range of nature-inspired art.

The Naturalist Gallery usually focusses on very representational nature work – so it is a please for me to be part of a change for their gallery with not realistic naturalist work.  It is always fun to see changes like this – and the inclusion of difference in their gallery.
