Christine Anderson

Christine Anderson is a Senior level Illustrator and Surface Pattern Designer based in Scottsdale, Arizona. She received a BFA in Graphic Design/Illustration from Drake University and has worked in commercial design for over twenty years. Though she had a successful career as a muralist and furniture designer, as well as being commissioned by corporations such as Learnin’ Tree, American Express, Hobby Lobby, Trader Joe’s, Michaels’s, QT Fabrics, and Boston International, Christine longed for her drawing board. She decided to refocus and get back to her true love, illustrating, with children’s books being part of her journey. Christine prefers to render her detailed illustrations in graphite, while bringing her work to life using acrylics and watercolor. To Christine, art is a creative process that is ever changing, growing, and with no end. As an accomplished artist, she loves learning and evolving by pushing, pulling, and stretching her abilities and her craft.
