Cristina Sarno recently relocated to Silvermine, Connecticut after years living in Brooklyn, NY. Born and raised in New Canaan and Norwalk, Cristina began painting from her imagination as a young child. She studied at Parsons School of Design in New York City to earn her BFA in Photography and in the intervening years experimented with many different mediums and subject matter, portrait photography, large scale expressionist paintings and even color and black and white printing/printmaking. She began this process as a college student in Vermont. While in New York she found herself designing imaginary album covers on the computer and dressing top fashion models at a major fashion label. Now that she’s back home, she will return her focus to the calm, reflective process of mixing paints, printing pictures, and creating her world within the work.
