Christie Martinez
About Me
Hometown: Austin, TX
Education: B.A. in Arts, Art History
Family: Husband, Kyle; son, Mateo; two dogs, Tank and Noel
My interest in the past led me to study Art History at The University of Texas, but I've always liked to make art as well. Being exposed to so many types of art through Art History, my own work started to develop and become inspired by the artists I was visiting in the classroom.
My favorite mediums to work in are Watercolors, Pencils, and Acrylics. I started making art in the early 90's and it's been my passion ever since, along with traveling. I've been from the crypts to the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. I've seen mummies and been on the canals in Amsterdam. I stood under the Alexander Calder installationation at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., and sat in front of my favorite paintings by Gustav Klimt at the Museum of Modern Art. My travels have taken me to fantastic places and given me invaluable inspiration for life and art.
