    Bend, Oregon -- March, 18, 2008:    High Desert Gallery & Custom Framing of Central Oregon is proud to announce the signing of a representation agreement with Nationally known Oregon Artist, Cristina Acosta.   Cristina's original paintings and fine art hand embellished giclee prints are available for sale in High Desert Gallery's Redmond and Sisters Oregon fine art and custom framing galleries.

    Cristina's career has included:  A two-year stint as a billboard mural and lettering artist. Five years teaching college art classes. Nine years as an artisan tile designer & production artist for her nationally distributed signature line of ceramic tile during the 1990’s, life long love of the arts and more.

    Her artistry is featured in a variety of books and magazines, including her successful art book, Paint Happy! (North Light Books, ©2002,2004).  She illustrated the children’s book, When Woman Became the Sea (Beyond Words Pub., ©1998) and contributed to many other books and periodicals including Artist Magazine, Pure Inspiration, Better Homes and Gardens, House Beautiful, Latina magazine, Latina Style, Good Housekeeping, and Woman’s Day home design publications.

    Cristina continually paints and writes from her studio at her home in the rain-shadow of the Cascade Mountains.
