TESTIMONIALS
Navarrete's artwork reflects her response to everyday life. Through abstract imagery, the artist speaks directly to the viewer about the possibility of an inner-consciousness. Each painting brings forward concepts of change and discovery at the site of human experience.
Clearly a masterful colorist, Navarrete layers and blends vibrant color without modesty or hesitation. The impact is highly dynamic. She brings together warm and cool colors within one painting creating a diverse yet cohesive palette. With a practice rooted in Printmaking and painting she is both adventurous and inventive in her color combinations. Cristina Navarrete uses textural depth to create different moods throughout her work. Her artwork is full of life both artistically and emotionally. Her artistic success is largely due to the luminous colors and expressive quality of her art.
