Christina Ramos is a nationally recognized artist from Southern California. Specializing in figurative realism, Christina was recently named by American Galleries as one of America’s Great Painters (http://americangallery.wordpress.com). She was recently featured as an “Artist to Watch” in the January 2015 Issue of Southwest Art Magazine. Her work has been shown throughout the United States and has been honored with awards from Max Ginsburg, Dean Mitchell, Tony Pro, and Kristin Hoerth (Editor and Chief of Southwest Art Magazine).
Raised in a family of artists, craftsmen and musicians, Christina’s talent was recognized at an early age. Although she studied architecture and interior design during college, it was not until she was home raising her four children that she began focusing on painting. She refined her skills in figurative painting at the Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art. Her innovative use of acrylic has made her a much sought after demonstrator and instructor. She is currently a Golden Working Artist representing Golden Artist Colors, Williamsburg Handmade Oils, and QoR Watercolor Companies.
Christina’s work has been shown at the San Diego Museum of the Living Artist, the Santa Paula Museum of Art, the International Museum of Contemporary Masters of Fine Art, the Pacific Asian Museum, the Santa Barbara Natural History Museum, the Pasadena Museum of History, and many galleries throughout the United States.
Christina is an active member of the Portrait Society of America, National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society, International Society of Acrylic Painters and the California Art Club
Christina’s work is held in many private collections in the United States and Europe.
