Christine Knight Coombs
Christine paints realistic oil and watercolor scenes that capture “the beauty of the moment.” She hopes these paintings help to conjure feelings and stories that viewers may have forgotten. She sees this reconnection as an opportunity for healing and growth.
Coombs began learning about art at the age of six, by taking lessons after school. She continued to be trained by numerous private teachers, and attended Rhode Island School of Design and Syracuse University School of Art. Her award-winning work is part of many private, corporate and government collections including movie stars and well-known figures of the business world. She has illustrated children’s books, covers for national sporting magazines and catalogs, such as Down East Books. Christine has been featured in a demonstration article and cover for the Artist Magazine.
“My intention is for the viewer to feel the moment on that cold, clear day when the subjects pause to take in, with all their senses, the surroundings and beauty of the world around them. Beauty, joys of relationship and inner serenity—these are the subjects I seek to express through my paintings. ... Although all the elements of painting (such as form, composition, color, and light) hold equal importance, it is light that gives the most expression.”
