“It’s
all about bringing a moment of joy to people’s lives…
whether
it’s the smile that comes across their face
when they look at a drawing of
their favorite animal,
or the tear in their eye when they view a portrait of their
loved one."

After
working six years as senior artist for the Ohio Bell Telephone Company,
she started doing portraits and other freelance
work at home in order to be with her 3 young boys. Over the years, Cindy has done many commissioned portraits and wildlife paintings, has taught drawing classes, and has won numerous awards. |
|
Her largest project has been a
collection of over 375 pen and ink
show dog illustrations that are available
nationally as reproductions
on mugs, T-shirts, note cards, and many other products.
Although Cindy works in pastels,
charcoals, acrylics,
watercolors, pencil and pen & ink, her favorite medium
is the rather unusual prismacolor pencil.
"It
offers the control and very fine detailing that I desire
and my customers demand.
I like the looks of disbelief
when someone learns that the piece they were admiring
was done in JUST colored pencils!"
