About
Hi I’m Christina Crook, a self-taught artist born and raised in SW London. I’ve made Tooting my home and adore the common, the lido and the lovely community. My little muse, Toffee, the mini dachshund, especially loves the common. On a personal level, I am a PCOS girlie and newly diagnosed with ADHD.
The full story
I was actually a science kid and studied all the way up to Biology BSc but in my late twenties (most likely due to undiagnosed ADHD burnout!) I rediscovered my creative, arty self and haven't looked back since.
I have a wonderful and supportive husband named Ed, who loves DND and Warhammer and – the star of the show – our little baby Toffee, she’s the long-haired miniature dachshund who runs the household. She is my muse, supervisor, best friend and boss baby.
My Art
I simply began as a digital artist with a beautiful dog — how could I not draw her! Once that portrait was done, it just made sense with my love of animals, dogs particularly, to continue to digitally paint them.
I am currently specialising in my digital pet portraits, however I am a multidisciplinary artist: to see more of my work please take a look at my instagram @christinacrookcreative where I sketch, collage, craft and more.
