Christine Eyres<br />

Australia<br />

Christine graduated with a Bachelor<br />

<strong>of</strong> Fine <strong>Art</strong>s from Curtin University,<br />

Western Australia, 1984, and has since<br />

completed post-graduate studies at<br />

Curtin and James Cook Universities.<br />

She has exhibited widely in Australia<br />

and abroad, and conducts workshops<br />

in painting techniques, life drawing,<br />

portraiture and printmaking. Her<br />

art tends to be figurative, examining<br />

relationships as well as more political<br />

issues. Some <strong>of</strong> Christine’s recent<br />

paintings have been informed by<br />

<strong>the</strong> experience <strong>of</strong> volunteer work in<br />

outback Australia, with children too<br />

isolated to attend school. The Brahman<br />

bulls on <strong>the</strong> outback stations fascinate<br />

her. Toge<strong>the</strong>r with mythology, <strong>the</strong>y<br />

creep into her work.<br />
