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. She creates three distinct series of paintings: Paint
Happy series, Hispanic Heritage series (Madonnas) and her oils
including her Animal Spirit series. Despite the different styles, her
work is typified by her lush use of color, dynamic design and the
presence of joy.
Museums, galleries and collectors
nationwide collect and exhibit her work.
