About the Artist

Growing up on an orchard in Massachusetts, Christian had an affinity with nature from an early age. Walking through autumn foliage to a secret pond, or riding his horse bareback in the snow under a full moon were special memories, and often his camera was there to try and record the feeling behind these experiences.

Now he's a successful commercial photographer working for clients in Australia, the US, and the UK. "It is this ability to portray something with feeling and emotion, with 'soul' that excites me in my commercial work," Christian says.

Mushenko was one of under 70 photographers included in last year's 'Masters of Photography' International Charity Exhibition in Brazil, and awarded Honor of Distinction in the International Color Awards 2006. His rich fine art photographs are infused with the same depth and character he shows when portraying people's passions and true soul through the lens, or the commissions of his fashion or advertising work.

"These pictures are an outward expression of the innermost feelings of one's soul," says Christian, "and are inspired by being open to the spirit inside, and a yearning for beauty and peace in our world."
