Introducing Cynthia Rojas and her black and white menagerie of lots and lots of waves, trees, and animals.

I ran across Rojas work at a Chelsea Open Studios event last week. I loved seeing the installation of her work layers of black paper shapes with white chalk drawings, and her paintings on wood panels large and small, on dishes and platters and even on old portrait photographs.

Her work is available as single pieces as well, each with its own charms and mood. As you can see, I have a soft spot for the paintings on plates.

Below is a work on paper, as well as some larger paintings on maple panels, plus an altered photo.

Please contact her via email, if you'd like to learn more about any pieces or schedule a visit to see the work in person.

Nice to meet you Cynthia!
