Lake Macquarie based artist, Chris has a clear passion for art

Creativity has always played an important role in her life and she started early, winning her first art award in 1983, before moving onto other areas of design over the years

In recent years, she has developed a passion for fluid and mixed media art using a variety of mediums including resin

With a desire to make art more accessible, in 2018, Chris founded Allettare Designs, a predominately functional art business that has a focus on creating distinctive, one-of-a-kind pieces

Combining her love of art with her desire to create special pieces

which are practical as well as beautiful, including jewellery & homewares. Chris coined the phrase 'Art isn't just for looking at'!

Chris loves nothing more than sharing the experience with her clients as she brings their vision to life, delighting in their enjoyment as they receive that exclusive piece created especially for them

2020 saw Allettare Dezigns announced as a finalist for the first time in the Local Business Awards for the Hunter Region

Chris is keen to share her passion for art with others and also runs a variety of resin workshops, as well as paint pouring, alcohol ink, textured art and kids classes from her studio in Cardiff NSW.
