Hello! My name is Christie. I've been making in one way or another since I was very small. Being creative is just part of my every day.
Painting on pointes feels like a unique canvas. I like that it's difficult to do. I like the opportunity of something thats inside and out, and theres many more options to play with that. I feel I probably haven’t yet pushed that avenue enough. But there's never enough time to do everything I want to creatively....
I started out with rhythmic gymnastics, moved into dance, and finally into aerial. Dancing in the air (silks, hoop, trapeze) is a whole new world of challenge and love for me at this point in my life.
My other creative pursuits are crocheting cute animals, upcycling, painting, resin, small worlds, building homes for mice, and getting glitter everywhere.
On my website you'll find crochet/knitted items for sale for aerial and dance (along the lines of elbow covers or ankle/leg warmers!).
