Kristi was born and raised on the Pacific Coast to a family of artists and avid gardeners. She now resides and paints in Saanich, on Vancouver Island, where she lives with her husband and two kids.
Kristi´s fine art has won awards in several juried exhibitions of the Federation of Canadian Artists, and she has received awards for her children’s book illustrations by the International Independent Publishers. She is a juried member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and Vice President of the Island Illustrators Society as well as a member of the CACGV, AGGV, CARFAC, CARCC and CANSCAIP. Her original fine art work, art cards, books and prints, can be found in various Galleries and Arts events on Vancouver Island and throughout North American including the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria Art Rentals, The On Canvas Gallery, and Sooke Harbour House Gallery.
As a fine artist and illustrator, Kristi approaches each series for its "green friendliness", its versatility for the project, and the mood it captures. Regardless of the medium her works often feature an appreciation for the environment and use the warm west coast sepia tones that she loves.
