Artists Statement
My name is Christine Morren.
I was born in Belgium, Louvain in 1966. Since I was a little girl, I longed to do something in the Arts. Art school was a dream, but my parents wanted me to study something else. So I did.
I believe it was in 2002 that my husband bought me some brushes, paints, and an easel. I was ready to start painting. My first paintings were in Acrylics. After a few months of struggling with the Acrylic paint medium, searching the Internet to view paintings, and find technical tips, I resolved to find someone who could teach me more about the techniques I was seeking.
I found a painter in Antwerp called Maarten Boffé who began to teach me the technique of fine painting in Oils every Saturday. After that year, I used my knowledge to paint on my own. A few years thereafter, I met Jef Bertels, and began a course in his atelier. I was in the company of five other painters, and he supervised the projects we wanted to realize.
I hope you enjoy my gallery.

PLEASE NOTE:
We are currently rebuilding our website with a new theme - so temporarily this site is functional, but a construction zone.
Headers, background and certain special new functions will be built in, respectively changed. Additionally, most Slide Shows used to be embedded from our Private Social Network on Ning. Since Ning discontinued Flash some time ago, the space where the embedded slide shows supposed to be is blank!
We are working to fix this as well, but with over 500 pages for artists alone, this will take time.
