Christine Beirne is a multi-media artist who paints in oil, sculpts in metal and stone and has been known to cover herself with paint in a performance piece. Her study of music, piano, percussion and composition, provides the subtext that runs through all her art from her percussive brushstrokes to the fugal forms in her sculpture. Beirne received her Bachelors in Art from California State University Channel Islands in 2004. She has had solo exhibitions at the Buenaventura Art Gallery, at Café Zach, both in Ventura, California and at Café Valentino in Simi Valley, California. Selected group exhibitions include the City of Ventura Banner Competition, Tradition and Technology at SCIAC, The 19th Annual Open Competition at Buenaventura Gallery, and Three Women: Emerging Paths in Ventura. Christine was an Artist-In-Residence at Studio Channel Islands Art Center in Camarillo and the Marketing Director for the Buenaventura Art Association. She is also active with public relations for Studio Channel Islands Art Center in Camarillo. Her studio is located on Ojai, California. To arrange a studio visit, email the artist. She is the two-time recipient of the Award of Excellence in Sculpture and Painting at Ventura College. |
