Bio: Written by: Rossi ColeChristine Copeland is an entrepreneur and recent graduate of Judson University of Illinois. She began developing her artistic talent as a small child through drawing cartoons and designs for clothing. Learning how to paint came easy for her at Auburn high school and she continued some art education while studying Mass Communications at Rock Valley college of Rockford, Illinois as well. Although she majored in business and human resources she has been an artist at heart, known to participate in all areas of the arts such as singing, dance, theatre, entertainment media, and creative writing. She has participated in poetry events in the Rockford and Chicago, IL area… as well. Now, she is self employed as a natural hair beautician who loves to write and create art in her spare time and uses it to decorate her home. When I asked her why she is now deciding to part with some of her works she replied, " I just put some of them on the wall and my friends and hair clients loved it, so I thought maybe other people would too. Art is not just going to be something to do anymore; I want to take it to the next level."
