Christina Maassen

Christina is a Northland-based artist working from her studio near the beach in Ruakaka - a long-held dream that now fuels her creativity. Surrounded by nature, she draws inspiration from gardens, native flora and fauna, and her deep love of the natural world. Her practice spans botanical oils, delicate watercolours, and coloured pencil works, reflecting her eye for detail and sensitivity to form. While oils and watercolours remain her foundation, Christina also embraces the expressive possibilities of acrylics and mixed media in more abstract pieces.
