Chris lives on a farm at the edge of the village of Brownsburg. This farm is the remainder of one of the original large farms in the area.  She lives in the brick 1700’s house which was built by Robert Wardlaw, the co-founder of the village of Brownsburg in the late 18th century. She has done a series of paintings celebrating the rural beauty of her farm including her beloved horses, the village and the surrounding landscape.
