Gift Cards

Hi everybody!

Hope your well.

Though I’d show you this gorgeous gift idea!

How beautiful are these gift cards.

I made this set yesterday as a birthday gift.

It comes with 6 envelopes, 4 gift tags, 2 gift cards and of course enough pre made wax seals to stick on.

I made the envelopes using Recycled Floral Paper and the cards are hand painted using gouache. These were fun to create, exploring with the colour schemes and different flower shapes and textures.

I’m so happy with the way they turned out and thought it was such a lovely gift idea for someone that loves handmade artwork!

If you’d like to see more, I’ve posted extra pictures on my Instagram @cristinapasaa

Thank you all,

“Picasso Blue Period Rock Art”

Hi everybody!

This is a rock I’ve been working on for a customer!

They had a few specific ideas that they wanted, including combining Picasso faces and Paul Klee’s artwork as well as the Picasso Blue Period for the colour scheme and the male wearing an AFL jersey.

The green, blue hues were great colours to work with, I tried mimicking the same colours in Picasso’s Blue Period into my piece.

We communicated back and forth with ideas and finalised an idea that I hand painted onto a rock.

This request was something very different that I was excited to create and I’m happy with the way it turned out.

It’s currently on it’s way to it’s forever home and I’m interested to see how they display this piece!

If you’d like a custom rock painting to sit on your desk or mantelpiece…

These are the many ways to contact me!

Custom plant paintings

Hi everyone!

It’s been a while since I’ve written a new blog.

I’ve been busy with my part time job and applying for university, I’ve finally had a little break to get these beautiful paintings finished for a lovely new customer.

She requested 6 10x10cm canvases and chose which plants she wanted me to paint as well as the 15x20cm thin canvas panel!

I absolutely loved being able to do some more canvas paintings in my spare time.

Can’t wait for more of your awesome orders, make sure to follow me on all my social media pages to get more regular updates! @cristinapasaa

Custom pet phone case

‘Custom Pet Phone Case’

Here’s an update on the Pet Lovers Phone Case that I have been working on lately.

A regular customer of mine wanted their cat and dog together with LV collars and a white LV pattern as the background.

My cases are customisable to have whatever you desire, depending on your design my cases are either hand painted or made using vinyl.

Such a beautiful way to have your pets with you everywhere you go!

For this particular design, I digitally drew the animals on my iPad, they are then printed onto a type of adhesive, stuck onto the phone case and coated using resin.

It’s not finished yet, still needs the LV pattern background and a fresh protective coat of resin.

If you’d like to see more cases I have made for my lovely customers go to Products > Phone Case Art

Finished the 4″ x6″!

I’ve finished the 4″x6″ commissioned paintings!

I’m so happy with how they turned out, such an awesome opportunity to create these for such a lovely customer.

Sometimes while painting, I film videos so that my followers get to see a work in process shot.

While I painted the Marigold Flower I decided to make a short Instagram reel.

It’s up now on my Instagram and TikTok, if you’d like to go check it out @cristinapasaa

As I’ve finished these and sent them off to their forever home. I’m now working on another Pet Lovers phone case for a regular customer, more updates on that coming soon!

Gouache 4″x 6″ painting

Hi again!

Today I worked on these 2 beautiful floral commission pieces, the Marigold Flower & the Gladiolus.

These 4”x6” paintings are going to look beautiful in oak picture frames either hung on the wall or placed standing as decor pieces.

Gouache is a new medium that I have started using and it’s become one of my favourites because of the way you can have different opacities depending on the amount of water you add to your brush.

One finished… and I’ll be completing the other one in the next couple of days!

Make sure to follow my Instagram @cristinapasaa to see more photos of these pieces.

Butterfly Collection

Hi everyone it’s Cristina here!

Welcome to my website, a place where you can see all my artwork and read my latest blog posts to see what I’ve been up to recently!

The last couple of days I’ve been working on this beautiful butterfly collection while watching some of my favourite TV series on Netflix. Colouring is such a satisfying way to relax.

I decided to use Faber Castell polychromos pencils for all my butterflies as you can get a great texture and opacity when working with this medium. The quality of these pencils are incredible.

When researching, I gathered a list of 25 butterflies and moths that I’ll be working on slowly and once I’ve completed them all they will be available to purchase as a collection of 25. They will look amazing as a collage on the wall either framed or unframed, whatever style you like best!

I’ve also got a TikTok account as well with the same username!

Very happy with her work!”
