Wicked Game Art Studio is inspired by the Art Nouveau, Symbolist, Romantic and Victorian Gothic movements of the 19th century, fusing organic connections to nature, asymmetry and idealized female figures with the exploration of emotions, visions, and the artist's inner world.  Themes of the era included love, anguish, sensual awakening, and the subconscious.  

Working in the "chiaroscuro" (light and dark) and "sfumato" (smoky) techniques, Christina's charcoal portraits inhabit dream worlds of longing, mystery and metamorphosis.  They are paired with 19th century poem fragments to invoke the inner realm of the subject. Her oil paintings are color-saturated imagined landscapes.
