I'm always studying, reading and producing art. I love to play with colors and paint. I have painted many subjects and my paintings show the vibrancy of light and color of my region.

Since I was a child I love to draw and paint. Art is part of my dailly life. I have graduated in graphic design in 2000 and have worked as designer for many years. I have completed 30 years of painting, I have accumulated a lot of knowledge and experience and want to share it with people to help others to learn to create art. The idea to create art tutorials came later.

I've been working with local art galeries in Brazil, where I sell and promote my artwork. Also I sell on galleries in USA. But now I want to sell it by myself direct to my customers. This shop is my way to do this. I've opened my online shop on Aug 2nd, 2012 and it's a good experience to interact with different people from all around the world.

One day my son asked me: "Mom, why do you paint?" That made me think a lot and I realized that I can't survive without painting. I have the need to produce something and I feel happy when a paintig comes out colorful, well drawn and without any technical mistake, I feel I am able to make something good that can pleases someone else. In fact part of the job is create the painting, and the other part is to be sold and accepted in someone home. I feel absolutelly happy when the entire circle of production and selling of one artwork is complete.

From 2012 to 2017 I've made 43 sales. I've sold paintings, drawings and some design services. After that I've stopped selling on etsy for a period of time. Now, on 2019, I'm back selling my original watercolors and pdf tutorials. My main objective is not just sell and gain proffit of it, I want people to have access to my art for an affordable and fair price. I offer free shipping for the original artworks and I try to do my best on costumer services. Any comment or question feel free to contact me.

I trully hope you learn a lot from my PDF tutorials and can create a more professional art. I wish all my students to succeed and one day they can tell people: "I've learn how to make this with Cristina." That will totally pay all my efforts.

Come back to my shop soon and you'll see something new.

Thank, you
Cristina Jacó
