Hi! I'm Khrystyna Khristianova, a Pocono-based artist born in Ukraine and inspired by the beauty of nature of both countries. I work in a variety of art media from oils to watercolors and charcoal with a focus on dreamy and atmospheric scenes that combine realism and contemporary impressionism with imaginative scenery. My primary subjects are landscapes, flowers and animals, and I love doing pet portrait commissions. For over a decade now I've greatly enjoyed being an art teacher because it allows me to share my passion for art and to show that anyone can learn to express themselves through painting and drawing.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and our crazy border collie Juny, crafting, gardening, reading books, playing piano and figure skating.
