Crystal Contreras.

Hi my name is Crystal Contreras. I’ve been practicing relief printmaking since 2022 and currently reside in an artist community. My artistic journey began much later in life when I moved back to Santa Cruz as an adult when the pandemic began. This time in my life really fulfilled me. I took time to explore nature, my family, myself and my art. Without that time I would not be the person I am today. Nowadays I find myself inspired by food, nature, and statements. My full body of work can be seen at River Studio, at the Tannery Arts Center where I share space with 4 other women artists. Thank you for viewing my work.
