Two years later, Christine moved to the Boston area to continue her studies at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, concentrating on easel painting and classical techniques and received her BFA degree from Tufts University and a diploma from the SMFA. She worked as head painting conservator at Childs Gallery, Newbury St., Boston for many years and later opened her own conservation studio on the North Shore, specializing in restoration for private clients and a wide array of art dealers and museums.

Gloucester Voted #3 Small Arts City In The Country by American Style Magazine
"- Cape Ann, a thriving arts and cultural destination, lies just 30 miles north of Boston along one of the prettiest stretches of coastline in all of Massachusetts. Billed as one of the last great unspoiled places, its harbors, lighthouses, beaches, coves and coastline have been attracting artists almost from its beginnings in 1623. Cape Ann's four communities include Rockport, Essex, Manchester-by-the-Sea and Gloucester, America's oldest seaport."
