About Me

Cristina Bencina was born on Long Island, New York. She studied illustration and received her BFA at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. She creates work with digital, mixed media, and traditional linocut printmaking techniques.

She specializes in book illustration and other sorts of various jobs. Cristina has worked on a wide range of projects including wrap-around dust jackets, book covers, interior narrative book illustrations, portraiture, album covers, advertising illustrations, conceptual artwork, and more.

Cristina currently lives in beautiful, sunny Colorado with her husband and two dogs. She is a proud owner of a full of life Australian Cattledog mix named Freya and an oblivious but chill miniature Dachshund named Corvo.

In her spare time, Cristina enjoys reading & gaming.
