Cristian

Cristian is a visual artist born and raised in Guatemala; a country known for its deep roots with the Mayan Culture. This rich heritage influenced and inspired Cristian since he first started painting using oils and acrylics. Thanks to the help of his brother, Cristian moved to Canada in 2002 and pursued a Bachelors in Business Administration from the University of Regina. Since his first weeks in Canada, he continued developing his passion for painting and drawing. His themes and colors have constantly evolved, still maintaining vivid colours. In each work he tries to achieve storytelling or at least provoke a happy smile. During the past few years his wife Addy has been a great comrade in developing new art ideas. He is honoured to see the recognition he has gained in Regina, and plans to continue exploring this skill and encourage others to try creating art.
