Artist Bio: Christine K. Schilling

*

An interest in bright shiny objects began as soon as I discovered pockets.

My Grandmothers taught me to appreciate lovely & well crafted things.

And so, for years, I’ve collected beautiful parts & pieces, of metal, wood, china, stone and lace.

But my way of putting them together would surprise my Grandmothers.

I grew up in New York City, and feel lucky to have done many things in the Art world:

Art Lessons, Greenwich House Pottery School, Art Students League, High School of Music & Art

B.A. Studio Art, & M.A. Art Therapy.

I’ve lived in Kenya, traveled Central & South America, & hitch-hiked across Europe & North Africa.

At present I live & work on Historic Commercial Street in Springfield Missouri.
