"I hail from Western Massachusetts, where I grew up in a family and community of artists and craftspeople & developed my love of nature & the outdoors. After attending UVM for premed & Savannah College of Art & Design, I earned my BFA from UMASS, Amherst. As an avid cyclist, yogini, hiker, weightlifter, fitness enthusiast & general outdoors-woman, I have a great appreciation for the great outdoors and the natural world.
Artistically, I have always been drawn to depict animals in
addition to people, especially in a whimsical manner. There is no shortage of
fascinating, unusual subjects in the animal kingdom. In all my work, I am
intrigued by line, texture and color, and am most drawn to using watercolor as
it is unpredictable. The most interesting things happen in my work when
“mistakes” occur- unplanned reactions between pigment & paper that I will
never be able to duplicate. I currently live in Vista, work as a graphic designer at The Upper Deck Company, & freelance as a graphic & web designer and fine artist". Visit Krista at www.kristatimberlake.com and check out the various talents she excels in.
