Christiane CARRIZEY is a painter of French nationality. She was born on March 8, 1929. She has been painting since the age of 12. We quote her: "I am a free painter. Neither a dealer nor an exclusive gallery that would direct my work. For figurative, I am abstract and for abstract, I am figurative. I do not make the difference; I express emotions more than "pretty things".
