Just You
+ Me
It’s a vulnerable act to be an artist
Each time you put your work into the world, you are saying, Here I am.
But even the bravest artists sometimes hesitate. Fear. Time. Money. Confusion. Overwhelm.
I know those stops well – and I know how to move through them.
For years I’ve helped artists find confidence, agency, and authority in their work.
Who I Am
I’ve worked as an award-winning gallerist, curator, and agent representing blue-chip artists while introducing unknown voices to the marketplace.
Over the past ten years, my subsequent work as a coach and mentor has been honored internationally:
- LinkedIn named me an ‘Influencer in Contemporary Art’
- I’ve been made a Fellow of London’s Royal Society of Arts
- And in 2025, the French Academy of Arts, Sciences and Letters awarded me their Gold Medal of Honor for the work I do to help artists.
“Crista teaches what most artists never learn — how to honor
your creative life and build it into something that lasts.”
-Kadira Jennings, Australia
Why Work One-on-One
When talented artists get stuck, it’s rarely about the art itself.
The friction is in the alignment between who you are, what you make, and how you share it with the world.
Our work together is a sacred partnership: strategic, creative, and deeply personal.
We’ll explore your practice, your materials, your message, and your mindset. You’ll walk away clear, focused, and ready to move forward with confidence.
“Working with Crista has been nothing short of revolutionary. Over twelve months I shifted from a corporate job to being a full-time artist. Crista’s insight, structure, and compassion made that possible.”
— Clare Bond, California, clarebondart.com
“In the labyrinth of finding my voice and shaping my portfolio, Crista was both my Northern Star and Ariadne’s Thread. Her guidance was meticulous and full of grace.”
— Dov Fuchs, Tel Aviv, dovfuchs.art
