…Once in a blue moon you encounter a model who embodies a synthesis of the kind of grace, strength, personal integrity, talent, & work ethic that elevates the quality of work created by an art student: Chrissy is such a model. For over ten years, I have had the honor of working with Chrissy…, they are a student favorite…, Chrissy is incredibly versatile, reliable, & hard-working. Their poses are almost lyrical - full of grace and musicality. They are a wonderful collaborator in the classroom, striving to ensure their poses support what is being taught. … Their warm & open personality couple with quick wit makes them a complete dream to work with.

...Over the years [Chrissy has] become one of my “go-to” models. Always reliable, always inspiring. I consider Chrissy to be a true muse, ... because I am practically guaranteed to get a good drawing or painting any time they are on the model stand... All I have to do is capture the beauty of their pose; the hard work has already been done for me.
