It s only been three years since St. Charles artist Christine Hayman began working with oil pastels to create works featuring still life and landscapes.
But her first solo exhibit, titled Observational Musings, just opened at Bartlett s village hall.
I absolutely fell in love with it, it s an integral part of my life now, Hayman said. It s been a joy to my life.
After photos of her art were shared by a friend, Hayman was invited to exhibit in the gallery by Arts in Bartlett, a nonprofit meant to celebrate the arts and enrich the community. Her work went on display last week.
