A native New Yorker, Christie Owen lives in Edmond, Oklahoma and is known for her geometric 2D and 3D, minimalistic compositions. Her works are included in local and national museums, galleries, public venues, private collections, and retail locations. Owen’s approach is to find visual solutions and utilize a variety of tools, mediums, and applications to transfer concepts and techniques from project to project. Her motivation is to simultaneously unite harmony within each work, going back and forth between controlling the brush without intention and careful planning. The materials Owen uses help guide the process while always searching for new combinations. Being both a designer and an artist, she cultivates an intermix of minimalist and organic themes, producing work which is visually textured and rich with layers of mixed media and bold patterns.

Her work tends to have a rustic and heavily textured quality, but the final result is intended to appear quiet to reflect a more minimal outlook on life and art. Creating pieces that allow us to escape the technological realm, contemplate modern living and nature and then communicate how each domain influences another. Her pieces aim to engage the viewer with an emotional and environmental disposition that evokes a sense of balance and tranquility in the modern world.

Her works can be found in the Mabee-Gerrer Museum of Art, and Oklahoma Contemporary. Individual Artists of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Festival of the Arts Sculpture Park, Science Museum Oklahoma, Chesapeake Arena Thunder Family V.I.P. Lounge, American Institute of Architects Oklahoma Chapter, Penn Square Mall and BD Home.
