Christine Neill has had numerous solo shows in the United States and France. She also participates in national and international, group and juried exhibits. The honors she has received include a Maryland State Arts Council Fellowship and the Mellon Arts Grant. Goya Contemporary in Baltimore represents her and the work is included in many private and public collections.

Neill initially studied biology at Skidmore College, ultimately graduating with a BS degree in Art and earning an MFA in Painting from Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. It was natural for her to transition from the examination of biological methods in a lab to metaphorically visualizing those processes as imagery in paintings and prints. She dates her interest in environmental conservation to those early studies.

Neill divides her time between Baltimore and New Hampshire. She is a Professor of Painting at Maryland Institute College of Art.
