To bring hope, joy Encouragement, and peace
-Chrsitina Lim, the hopeful artist-


Welcome
I paint what reminds me of peace and hope. I paint both on location and in the studio and like to express how it feels to be there—how what I’m seeing reminds me of the goodness that surrounds us. To me, light is hope and colors are feelings. So maybe the tree trunks are redder, the colors warmer, and the light—well, the light filters through gently and consistently, like how hope comes through in my life. It’s never intrusive, always present, generously and quietly reminding me that better days—or perhaps even just better moments—are there when we choose to notice.
Please browse, and I hope you enjoy the visit here. Feel free to contact me to share your thoughts or if you have questions.
