 Exhibit Description:=0D=0A=
 =0D=0A=
 Victoria Christian is a self taught oil painter whose mission is to create images that deeply move her audience on emotional and spiritual levels. Victoria grew up in the quaint town of Ashland, Oregon where she first began her career as an artist.  She received her bachelors of Art in sociology and minored in fine art at Southern Oregon University.  After graduation, she moved to Hawaii and got a job working for Christian Lassen, a world renowned marine artist who inspired her to develop her skills as a painter.  =0D=0A=

 Despite her passion for painting, she returned to the mainland to pursue a Masters in Sociology at Northern Arizona University (her other passion).  For her thesis, she did research on women artists and identity formation, which eventually led to another series of research on female mystics and artists.  She is currently publishing a coffee table art book titled “Feminine Mysticism in Art: Artists Envisioning the Divine”, which is due to be released in the fall of 2010. =0D=0A=
