Christina Smith Papparazi Long ago, my backyard provided inspiration. Then I discovered the Ozark Mountains of southern Missouri. This "city girl" is still amazed at miles and miles of woods, clear rocky creeks and powerful springs. My paintings are intimate fragments of those woods. I moved into the more rugged mountains of Northwest Arkansas in 1978 and began exhibiting at shows throughout the south and mid-west. In 1989, I was selected to study with Canadian artist Robert Bateman - a wonderful experience and honor. In July of 2000, I moved into the gentle hills of southern Indiana and discovered that twenty years of Arkansas had made those mountains my home. I moved back in early 2002. ENTER HERE
