Christine Breakell-Lee

Christine studied Fine Arts and Communications at Simon Fraser University. She worked as a commercial illustrator and textile designer before concentrating on painting. Working primarily in mixed media with resin, she paints in translucent layers, using a variety of techniques and materials to create an indulgent mix of texture and colour. She likes to infuse the written word into her paintings, using text and phrases in a cheeky manner lending levity to the work. This play between spontaneity and graphic elements gives her artwork an undone edge. She draws inspiration from the social and physical landscape, capturing a sense of movement and emotion that communicates on a personal level. Christine currently lives and works in Vancouver, BC.
