Thanks for having a look at my photography. If we haven't already met, you might be interested to know that I'm an artist living in Brooklyn, NY. I recently returned from a year and a half in Mexico. I plan to return to Mexico again in the fall.

I use photography as well as painting and mixed-media work to express myself and my experience of life. Splitting time between New York and Mexico provides a wide range of perspectives to draw from.


YES, ALL PHOTOGRAPHS ARE FOR SALE!


I love and appreciate with all my heart people who support living, working artists. I sell prints on 11"x17" archival paper for $150. With a beautiful mat it is yours for $225. I can mail photographs to you wherever you are. Send me an email or give a call to make arrangements. chris at christinaderoos dot com or 347-834-2544

In addition to putting my own art into the world, I also guide workshops for kids and adults to access their creativity and personal expression. I also teach yoga classes, and am able to offer art and yoga experiences in one workshop. If you are interested in a workshop or would like to learn more, please email me: chris at christinaderoos dot com or call 347-834-2544.
