About the artist

Cristina Abondano is a Colombia-based artist. After graduating from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Architecture in 2016, she began painting while working as an architectural designer in the city of Boston. She has since moved back to her hometown, Cartagena, Colombia, where she works as a painter and part-time residential architect.

​

Cristina’s artistic endeavors are guided by her professional training, which reflects in her work as an inclination for calculated composition, stark contrast of light and shadow, and a cohesive chromatic selection. She is currently working on a collection of landscapes and seascapes.

  • Do you offer custom pieces/accept commissions?
    Yes, commissions are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. We can work together to bring your idea to life! Custom pieces can be made from a reference photograph or a variation of one of my previous works. I usually work with oil and acrylic paint. You will be able to choose the sizing that best fits your needs. The final price will be based on the complexity of the subject, but here is a sample minimum pricing chart for your reference: Commission Pricing: 40 cm x 60 cm – 15” x 24” range: $400 USD 60 cm x 80 cm – 24″ x 36″ range: $600 USD 90 cm x 120 cm – 36″ x 47” range: $1000 USD
  • Do you ship internationally?
    Yes! Original paintings can be shipped internationally from my hometown in Colombia. To ensure safe and affordable delivery worldwide, large-format paintings are shipped without a frame, rolled up in protective tubing. The painting would then need to be taken to a frame shop to be stretched over new wooden stretcher bars once it is received. Small-format paintings can be delivered in cardboard boxes. Prints of my works are sold in the US and the UK via my website www.cristina-abondano.pixels.com, and shipping usually takes 3-4 business days.
  • What payment methods do you accept?
    Paypal, Zelle, Venmo, and wire transfer.
