Cristine Maia's Studio

Hello! My name is Maia. A little backstory, I go by my middle name Maia, because I married a man named Chris, and I had always went by Cris, but it was too confusing. :) 

I have always been an art kid, creating since I was very young. I went to college for Studio Art, Graphic Design and Video Animation. And I was lucky enough to work on 5 movies :) in the Art Department. I knew I wanted more stability, and so I followed Graphic Design. I have been a Graphic Designer for about 16 years now and I have loved it! 

About 2 years ago I started painting more, every week. And now I am excited to embark on the journey of creating and teaching acrylic paintings. 

Create. Connect. Inspire.

CREATE. Create for yourself, get lost in gliding the paint on the canvas. 
CONNECT. Connect with someone who is dear to you, gift them with something personally made by you.
INSPIRE. Inspire yourself daily and those around you.

Thank you for being here, and I hope you enjoy the videos!
