Cristina McAllisterI've been compelled to draw and create since I could hold a crayon, and have spent the first half of my life teaching myself how to develop that natural talent. I have worked as a professional artist and illustrator since my teens, exploring many genes and creative industries. In 2011, my amazing husband and I combined his building skills and my artistic flair to create Calliope The Wonder Wagon - a gypsy-style camper trailer and mobile work of art. Find out more about Calliope on my website: www.GypsyMystery.com. My quest to infuse this collaborative project with meaning led me to explore the fascinating world of symbolic imagery. This new direction also took me on a journey into the mystical and sacred realms, exploring spiritual traditions from around the world. These ideas sparked many art pieces intended to not only please the eye, but to inspire mindfulness, reverence and celebration. In 2014, I began exploring jewelry making and accessory design. My handmade fantasy fashion accessories can be found on my Etsy shop: https: //www.etsy.com/shop/cristinamcallister In 2015, I discovered coloring books for adults, and a whole new world of possibilties opened up to me. I hope to continue to explore this art form and create more fun and beautiful interactive art that we can collaborate on together. Read More Read Less
