I’m Christina - the artist behind Christina’s Place!

I create peaceful pastel landscapes inspired by the nature scenes I see when I meditate or visualize. These aren’t just imagined places - they’re rooted in memory.

When I started healing from PTSD, I found myself returning to soft moments from my childhood. Forests, meadows, and quiet skies would appear in my imagination, often bringing me back to the gentle world of Bambi. A movie I watched many times with my grandmother who raised me.

Those soft, dreamy illustrations was being gently reminded that the world could still be a soft place to live. Her home and outdoor gardens were filled with vintage frames with Italian artwork, never ending nature, and I’d lose myself for hours just staring at all of it, quietly soaking in their stillness and beauty. That mix of tenderness, nostalgia, and nature has stayed with me ever since. Today, it lives in every painting I create - from the softness of the pastels to the vintage frame each commission is paired with.

Through my art, I want others to feel that same sense of comfort and familiarity. Maybe this painting reminds you of your own childhood, a moment you never want to forget, a cottage, a trip, a milestone or maybe it was just a place that helped you feel again.

My hope is that my paintings help you reconnect with something meaningful, something calm, loving, and real. Christina’s Place isn’t just about art. It’s a place to come home to yourself through memory, nature, and the quiet peace we all carry deep inside.

So ask yourself...
What does your place look like?
