Christine Barker
"This Kentucky-born artist lives in Morehead, Kentucky just seven miles from the place of her birth. She has traveled around the world, lived in may places, but her great love for Kentucky, with all it’s beauty and memories of her childhood enticed her to return.
While living in California, Chris was a member of Pasadena Art association and El Monte Art Guild. She exhibited in cities such as Los Angeles and Pasadena, and San Francisco and won many awards and honors.
Her capability of immortalizing in oils and acrylic the memories of home, pleasures of childhood, and the nostalgia of days gone by is characterized in each painting. Her portraits capture the very essence of the person she is painting.
Chris and her husband, Cliff, own a Gallery of fine art in Morehead and she shares her talent and knowledge with her many students.
She is presently a member of Blue Grass Artists Association and Chairman of the Board of the Morehead Art Guild.
Presently, she serves as Judge in many Kentucky competitive art exhibits, teaches workshops, ,seminars and painting demonstrations for many art shows in the region. She also works with beautification programs for the community and has designed and built fountains and flower gardens for the community of Morehead. Much of her time and talent was donated to help promote Morehead as a regional Art center and a more beautiful place to live. She has received many Awards and Honors in her Art career.
More than anything else, Christine's painting is her as of expressing her deep love and appreciation for beauty and wonder of nature."
