Christine will be sadly missed ❤️what a beautiful lady who inspired us with her wonderful paintings and quirky character. I’ll always remember the day she visited with my mum & the March hares bouncing in my green fields inspired Christine to paint her hare collection and she was so kind to gift me one which I see every day in my house and know her memory and joy lives on .. in her wonderful paintings love to you all Sarah & the white room girls ❤️

My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Christine. I only met her in 2024 when I moved to the area. We had our walks and chats alongside her dog Jack. She was a wonderful lady, loved to chat about her children and grandchildren especially and she was so proud of you all. She was very happy & content living here. May she rest in peace. Carol 💕

" Late Fragment" by Raymond Carver.

" And did you get what
you wanted from life, even so
I did. And what did you want?
To call myself beloved , to feel myself
beloved on earth.
Julia, Caroline, Nick, above all you gave her the gift of being beloved. Told to me so often. She loved her life and had more to share. Her exuberance and laughter , even with illness's is worth dancing to. Inspiring. Beautiful delicate and forceful lines on a page -brilliance. When I think of you the sun will shine. Thank you Christine Bowen. You continue . xxx
