I'm Cindy

Having traveled extensively, I am now based in New Mexico. I find that my experiences fuel the creative process in creating my works, and all of them possess stories within every brush stroke. 

Since 1990, I have used colored pencils, my first love, both to create intricate pieces and to build the foundations for works in other mediums such as block prints and oil paintings. 

I am passionate about expressing the miraculous connections between every person on this planet, and I use the design element of motion and visual reminders of unique objects in my work to transport viewers into another world deep within themselves, where they may find that something positive has sprouted.

2023 brings a focus on my colored pencil and original block print work. I'll be teaching at the Roswell Museum and Art Center in Roswell, New Mexico. My colored pencil classes are on Thursday afternoons and are perfect for the serious colored pencil student.

The dry climate and warm temperatures in southeastern New Mexico create the perfect conditions for block printing of any kind. I love creating my original design and carving it upon high quality mounted linoleum block and printing with Caligo oil-based professional relief ink on fine art papers and reclaimed papers.
