I just can't tell you how touched I was when I found out that these 3 paintings I sold recently to a sweet man in the UK were bought as a gift for his wife to give her hope as she battles cancer.
I'm excited to announce that some of my abstract oil paintings are now showing at Artist's Showplace Gallery In Dallas, Texas. I recently shipped six paintings to the gallery:
I'm thrilled to be a part of the thriving North Dallas art scene!

Truth, Soul, Desire 40×40 Abstract Oil and Gold Leaf
I'm excited to announce that three of my oil paintings were recently purchased for permanent display in the Ketchum Arts & Sciences building at CU Boulder! The building was reopened this spring after an extensive remodel. I hope the students and faculty at CU will enjoy and be inspired every day by Forgotten Spring, Parade of Promises, and Truth, Soul, Desire!
Secret in the Sky is about gaining perspective on your life.
When
I started this painting, at first I couldn't connect to it. I felt too
close to really see it, so I couldn't finish it. Instead, I turned it to
face the wall.
A
month later, when I finally turned it around and looked at it again, I
started to see how the circles and negative space played off of each
other.
It
looked a little planetary, a little otherworldly. Like a photo of
space. So I added trails of light around the circles to harmonize them
and bring them into a balanced coexistence.
The
“secret” in the title is about gaining perspective on your life.
Sometimes, when you look up into the sky, it makes you realize that your
troubles aren't really all that big in the vastness of the universe.
Every once in a while, we all need to get that kind of perspective. It makes all the difference.
Secret In The Sky is painted in oil with gold leaf on a 20" round canvas.
You can see Secret In The Sky, and other new paintings on my website, cynthialigeros.com. Thanks so much for looking!
