Christina met Al through his gallery in Regina. For a short period of time, Christina worked in his gallery, where she
got to know Al a little better and had the benefit of his good humor and broad knowledge on being a career artist.
It was Al who first encouraged Christina to participate in the "Reflections of Nature" competition in Saskatoon. Christina
still takes her originals to Al in Saskatoon to be framed, as she won't trust anyone else to handle her artwork.

Christina met Rebecca and Glen through the SWAA (Saskatchewan Wildlife
Art Association). At "Reflections of Nature" 2007, Grambos were the "Featured Artists" and gave an amazing presentation.
Christina immediately fell in love with their photography, and proceeded to completely break-the-bank by purchasing a selection of
her favorite reference photos from their massive collection of completely incredible photography.

The Guzoo is a privately owned animal farm near Three Hills, AB. They have a wonderful assortment of
animals, including the big cats! They graciously gave Christina a tour of their facility, allowing her to take her own reference
photos (which she is now turning into art!). The Guzoo has a Siberian Tiger, Bengal Tigers, African Lions, Lynx, Cougars, and many
more! Visit their site, and donate to their cause if you can - every little bit helps the animals! (The Guzoo is privately
owned and funded - no government/community funding - it is a family owned operation). Christina will be donating portions of future print
sales to The Guzoo as a thanks for their generosity.
