Local Artists of all Styles

Every month, the Blue Hill Co-op features a local artist in the café. You may see paintings, photography, textiles, felted pieces, or any other type of visual art. We’re proud to showcase artists from the Blue Hill Peninsula and to help people find new additions to their personal collections.

This Month's Featured Artist is Christina Montano

EMBODIED HEALING: THE ART OF PRAYER

In a world filled with noise and chaos, there exists a sanctuary where healing meets creativity, and magic intertwines with every brushstroke. Meet Christina Montano, a beacon of light in the realm of Healing Arts, whose journey transcends mere canvas and paint to become a profound testament to the power of transformation. Embodied Healing: The Art of Prayer is a meditation on the universal language of prayer and its ability to heal, uplift, and connect us to the divine. Through a captivating blend of color and style, Christina invites us to explore the depths of prayer as a source of solace, strength, and inspiration. With each stroke of her paintbrush, she channels the essence of divine healing, infusing her art with a profound sense of purpose and intention. Drawing upon her background in many healing modalities, Christina infuses her artwork with the transformative energy of prayer, inviting viewers to connect with the divine presence that resides within and around them. Each painting becomes a portal to the sacred. Christina's work has a palpable sense of magic that radiates from every canvas. It's as if each painting holds a piece of her essence, a fragment of her boundless love and compassion for humanity. Christina's art serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty and wonder that surround us. As we gaze upon Christina's creations, we are reminded that healing is not just a destination but a journey—a journey that is as unique and individual as each brushstroke on a canvas. Through her art, Christina invites us to embark on that journey with her, to explore the depths of our own souls and discover the magic that lies within. So let us join hands with Christina as she continues to weave her healing magic into the world, one brushstroke at a time. For in her art, we find not only beauty but also prayer, healing, and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Christina has studied healing modalities and art with many inspiring teachers around the world. She lives in Blue Hill, Maine, and Blue Hill Healing is her local wellness practice.
