In 1998 Christine formed the publishing company Full Moon Publications, basing it in Lismore on the north coast of New South Wales, Australia, to deal with the commercial reproduction of her paintings and etchings. The company co-ordinates the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution of the cards, books and Giclee prints. Prior to the formation of Full Moon Publications Christine had self-published a limited edition poster print of a shearing shed drawing and a few years later, with the Qld Arts Council: the violin still-life print.
Christine remains the creative director of the company which works with a number of industry professionals Australia wide including Evoke Design in Launceston, Graphic Expressions in Byron Bay, Lismore City Printery in Lismore and AustralisIT in Kentucky.
