I enjoy challenging myself in a design capacity that allows me to work with my hands. I know in that moment there will be no other piece like it.Ĭhristine Marie Studio is a unique jewelry line that combines my love for time-worn treasures and the delight I feel wearing something that no one else has. Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle will never know. I love it when items I’ve curated over the years come together in a single moment. The pieces I find speak to me and I dream of creating pieces that do not follow trends.

I’ve followed an artistic path my whole career - over the last 30 years, I’ve built a successful design business, design teaching business, and I currently work as a creative director for a group of companies.Īs much as I love working as designer in business - I’ve always known I was a maker. I followed a friend to community college where I got an associates degree in graphic design. He longed for cleanliness and tidiness: it was hard to find peace in the middle of disorder. Horses, 4H and art were a big part of who I was growing up and you’ll see those influences throughout my home and in my creative work. A creative mess is better than idle tidiness. I had 3 horses of my own and spent a lot of time outside. a collector of small sparkly treasures, a hoarder of antiques and salvaged finds.
