I am Kristye, a contemporary abstract painter, designer, writer, illustrator, and teacher living in Northern Virginia.
I see the figure as a shell for the spirit. I enjoy using impressionistic strokes, featureless faces, and expressive forms to exhibit the universal emotions we all share. I explore nature, life, and the beauty of emotional self-reflection in the world around us. I hope that my work will touch and inspire you.
"I worked with Kristye on a surprise commission piece for my husband on Father's Day. I wish I had videotaped his reaction, because it spoke volume of her talent. It now hangs proudly in our home. Thank you Kristye!!!"
“Kristye created a painting that is a treasured moment caught in time. We could not be happier with the result. Thank you Kristye!”
Former Exc. Dir. Atlanta Falcons Youth FoundationÂ
"Kristye, "In the Huddle", was absolutely beautiful. I want to thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent with us."
