Christy Kill is an award-winning multi-media artist. She creates abstract paintings using acrylic, resin, and oil. She has exhibited in numerous locations in the DC area; and a pair of her paintings are on permanent display at the Ocean Cluster in Reykjavik, Iceland.
In 2019, Christy was the recipient of the U.S. Department of State’s Professional Development Fellowship, and this was the beginning of her surface pattern career. She has since sketched, photographed, and painted designs inspired by nature’s inhabitants of Iceland, the US, and now Uruguay.
