About Christine

At a very young age, Christine’s passion for painting began to blossom. Growing up in a creative household, she would often draw and paint on pieces of wood her father brought home from his carpentry shop. These early moments sparked a lifelong love for visual expression.

After a period away from the arts, Christine rekindled her passion at an Art Academy in Beirut, Lebanon. There, she honed her skills in drawing and immersed herself in the study of color theory and composition. Her artistic journey has continued ever since, shaped by ongoing workshops and explorations into various painting techniques.

Christine primarily works with oil on canvas, drawn to the medium for its rich pigmentation and smooth blending texture, which she finds both expressive and visually compelling. Her artwork is deeply personal; a reflection of her inner world, emotions, and life experiences. Each piece speaks to the beauty she perceives in everyday moments, expressed through color, form, and thoughtful composition.

Her work has been exhibited in renowned museums, international art fairs, and galleries, and has been featured in leading art magazines, earning recognition for its emotional depth and technical strength. She has also received multiple awards, a testament to the impact of her art on both juries and audiences alike.

Christine is a member of the Visual Artists Association (VAA) in London since 2025, and the International Association of Visual Artists (IAVA) in Florence since 2023.

I would like for my art to evoke positivity and hope. I wish for the viewer to escape through my art,
to connect with their soul, be curious, and be reminded to never lose Hope.
— Christine El Ojeil
