Christina Davis is Gallery 302 featured artist until Oct. 1

BRIDGTON — Christina Davis will be the guest artist at Gallery 302 from Aug. 28 until Oct. 1.
Though the gallery is not having a reception with food, the public is invited to meet the artist, who will hold a a talk and demonstration, at 5 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 28, at the gallery, 112 Main St.
Davis grew up in Maine and attended the Portland School of Art as well as Texas Tech University. She pursued a career as a jeweler, but painting was always a consistent part of her art career as well. She works in oil, acrylic and pastels, enjoying the ways that each medium speaks to her. She paints landscapes because of her love of the beauty that surrounds her as well as the challenge of showing movement and light in a way that communicates her experience of connecting to a particular place.
“My goal as a painter is to capture the essence of the beauty I see,” Davis said. “I strive to translate these complexities and the peace of the natural world around us through my art.”
