Christi C. Neff

Christi Neff is an American artist celebrated for her enchanting creations, crafted with delicate strokes of watercolor, acrylics, and alcohol markers. Her artistic style radiates whimsy and charm, beautifully encapsulating the essence of tranquility and the splendor of daily life. Nestled in a picturesque Pennsylvania town, Christi shares her abode with her loving husband, three delightful dogs, a spirited flock of chickens, and a playful cat who fancies herself the sovereign of all she surveys and shows up in her creations primarily as the "Naughty Black Cat" and/or "Ninja Cat" In pursuit of a more accessible means to share her artistic vision, Christi ventured into the realm of children's literature. This enchanting path has birthed several delightful books, alongside illustrations for fellow authors. With a heart full of compassion, she has generously donated a portion of her earnings to the animal shelters that rescued her cherished pets. Most of her tales are woven from the fabric of her childhood, echoing the stories of "Meadowview," the haven where she currently dwells. Her whimsical narratives invite readers into her dreamlike world, imparting cherished lessons gleaned from her 'wise years.' Before embarking on this creative odyssey, Christi dedicated herself to the noble art of education, serving as a technology specialist in the local public school. It was only after her four children ventured forth into the world that she unearthed her passion for artistry, transforming a spare room into the cherished "Blue Room" art studio. Christi has seamlessly transitioned from canvas to the realm of storytelling, crafting captivating, vibrant, and whimsical illustrations in collaboration with other writers. She proudly boasts a collection of published children’s and inspirational books, each a testament to her boundless creativity.
