Christy is known as the ‘Angel Artist’.  She got her inspiration for drawing angels from her Mom, who has angel things throughout her home. Christy uses angel gravestone/cemetery headstones or garden sculptures for her drawing references.  She mainly draws on white paper, but enjoys working on black paper to show depth and variety.  She will sometimes add metallic ink to colored pencil drawings on black paper to give her drawings a unique look.
