The artist at work in their studio, painting by lamplight

Hello, and welcome! My name is Cristina Anne Steo, I'm an artist based in New Jersey.

Oil painting is my primary medium, but creating art of all kinds has been a lifelong passion of mine. My day job and other craft is hospice nursing. Artistic creation makes space to process and integrate lessons from life and the stories of the incredible folks I meet in my field.

I have exhibited my work in a number of galleries, festivals and art shows, both locally and nationally, and I am always looking for new opportunities to share my creations with others. For me, art is not just about creating something beautiful; it is about connecting with others and sharing a part of myself with the world.

I want to thank Lena Shiffman, Erica Robin, Phil Rubinov Jacobson and Mantra Cora for all that they have taught me along my journey to become a better artist.

Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me and my art. I hope my work inspires you and brings a little bit of beauty into your life.
