Christine Sanford (b. 1948) Oil on Canvas
“Summer 2007“, depicting a Pantone array of horizontal stripes, signed and titled on the reverse of canvas.
48 in. x 36 in.
Born in Bryn Mawr, PA, and currently residing in Nantucket, Christine Sanford has applied herself to an independent study of painting, drawing and art criticism since the early 1980’s. Classes at the Artists’ Association of Nantucket from 1981-2015, combined with successive immersions in various abstract, printmaking and Japanese woodblock workshops eventually lead the artist to a painting residency at
the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, VT and have provided the inspiration and technical skills necessary for the artist’s successful artistic expression.
Using a painting style championed in the late 1950s and early 1960s by abstract expressionist painters Rothko and Diebenkorn, Sanford’s is an interest in color relationships; in compositions that use translucency, shape and chroma to narrate.
Christine has presented solo exhibitions on Nantucket at the Robert Foster Fine Art Gallery, South Wharf Gallery and Cape Cod 5 Bank, as well as the Page Bond Gallery, Richmond VA and the Mildred Hawn Gallery, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas.
