Christina Gouldsborough CANADIAN LANDSCAPE ARTIST
Artist Biography
Christina Gouldsborough was born and raised in a remote agricultural area of Northern Ontario, where she developed a deep appreciation for the quiet beauty of rural life. After a long and successful career in Environmental Management, Innovation, and Tech, Christina reduced her professional commitments to dedicate more time to her lifelong passion for art. Having lived in Airdrie, Alberta, for over 20 years, she creates from her home studio, where she refined her craft under the mentorship of professional artists. Her path reflects a commitment to creativity, personal growth, and a profound connection to nature.
Specializing in oil and acrylic mediums, Christina creates vivid landscapes that blend realism with emotional depth. Her signature style captures the serenity of wide-open spaces, emphasizing subtle shifts in light, tone, and color to evoke a sense of stillness and invite viewers to step into a world where noise and chaos give way to simplicity and repose. Her works, celebrated for their quiet strength, balance technical skill with the intangible qualities of mood and atmosphere.
Christina draws inspiration from the agricultural lands and natural beauty of Canada and abroad, reflecting her deep connection to the landscapes she paints. She views solitude as a source of renewal and creativity, translating this philosophy into every piece she creates. Her work encourages viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with nature and the beauty of solitude. For Christina, art is not just a visual experience but a heartfelt exploration of how landscapes can soothe, inspire, and restore.

Kristen Federchuk ARTIST
Artist Biography
Kristen Federchuk is a self-taught, Calgary-based artist, specializing in realistic acrylic paintings that capture the beauty around us. For as long as Kristen can remember she has loved art and could always be found with a pencil or paintbrush in hand studying the work of artists she admired. She is a graduate of the University of Alberta (BSc. Environmental Science) and a member of several professional art societies including the ASA, FCA and SCA. After working several years in her field, she changed paths to follow her heart and become a professional artist. It is truly something she was created to do, and it fills her with joy and excitement to watch each painting unfold.
She is drawn to images that reflect a simple, quiet elegance. In landscape paintings, it is the depth and beauty of a scene that attracts her. In her more recent works, she loves the life of the animal and being able to creatively combine that with the dynamic nature of metallics such as gold or copper leafing as well as metallic acrylic paints.
She is inspired most by the beauty of the natural world around her. Not wanting to be limited in her work, she paints what she finds beautiful or inspiring, preferring to be free to explore and paint the beauty around her. Painting makes her soul sing, and Kristen is happiest when she is at her easel! For Kristen painting is not just about art, it is about Glorying God through her work and being a blessing to others with the talent He gave her.
