Profile

Cristina Del Sol is a Canadian Mixed Media and Experimental Visual Artist, doing mainly Abstract and Non-Objective works. She is also an Educator and Creativity Facilitator.

Del Sol was born in Argentina, where she received formal art training. She has degrees in teaching, Art History and Psychology, as well as a B.F.A.( National Art Institute, Buenos Aires)

In Canada, she entered the world of Optics and became an Optician and Contact Lens Fitter as well as a Hatha and Yin Yoga teacher.

A lifelong student of art, attended several art institutions in Canada while working as an optician, painting and teaching art privately.

She developed a love for Botanical Watercolours and studied in depth "Mandala Healing". But her paintings, however, did not provide personal satisfaction; she could not express her passion, something was missing...until she discovered Experimental-Intuitive Painting, never to look back!

In 1995, she found a book co-authored by Michele Cassou: "Life, Paint And Passion, Reclaiming The Magic Of Spontaneous Expression" .It was the perfect method to free her creativity. After that discovery, she found many other methods suitable to Unleash The Creative power we all have , incorporating meditation, qigong and free drawing exercises prior to the spontaneous painting process.

Cristina's education and life experience in the Creative field is diverse.

For the past 16 years, she has undertaken intensive study in the USA and Canada, focusing in a variety of Experimental-Intuitive Painting methods, Art Therapy, Mandala work, Coaching Creativity, Meditation and Yoga Training.

Since 1999, Del Sol has been painting professionally, exhibiting her artwork in galleries and private showings while coaching creativity.

Her personal approach to spontaneous-intuitive painting is based on the connection between the creative process and meditation.

"Unleash Your Creativity" workshops are a fun way to meditate: a deep spiritual painting process.

Cristina makes Creativity a way of life and walks her creative talk.

She is currently working as a visual artist , teaching successful private painting workshops and conducting Yin Yoga Clases.

Juggling a number of exciting careers is, at its root, creativity in action.
