She worked in the Phoenix area as a graphic designer for ten years with corporate clients when she met fellow graphic Designer Bill Minton. They married and welcomed with JOY, God's blessing of three children! They have one married daughter, a son in the seminary and a daughter in college.
\r\n
\r\nWith her first vocation being that of marriage and motherhood; during the busy time of raising her three children her focus turned to fine art. As the children were growing, Celeine painted at home creating production pieces as an apprentice to professional artists. This proved to be a period of growth in knowledge and skill through apprenticeship. Over the years Celeine's work has ranged from painting commissioned pieces for private collectors, portraiture, murals, book illustrations, and Sacred art.
\r\n
\r\nAs her faith deepened she was drawn to grow in the understanding and skill of Sacred Art which is her true passion.
\r\nCeleine is an advocate of restoring the literacy of sacred art. \"Most of the world's great art is inspired by Christianity; this is our heritage. We must promote seeking BEAUTY and TRUTH through art and reinstating the practice of patronage of the arts; so that together, as Christians, we can restore truth, beauty and goodness in our world.\"
