About

Christine Frisbee was born in Summit, New Jersey in 1951. She was educated at Oak Knoll school where she was introduced to oil painting by her teacher Mother Liam. She went on to receive a bachelor’s degree from Fairfield University in Connecticut and a MBA from the University of Connecticut. Although she majored in business, she always painted.

Painting was a hobby until 2014 when friends told her to show her work.  Christine focused on landscapes and still-lives until recently when she also ventured into abstract painting.  She enjoys painting both styles and is successful in selling both styles.

She exhibits regularly in shows and galleries and her paintings hang in collections across the country.
