Cyndy Baran
Brookfield, WI
Creating art is a metaphor for life. We give and we take; we struggle; we work; we compromise. Eventually a heart-felt and vibrant painting comes together.
MessageStatement
Cyndy had always enjoyed art, but being an “artist” was not an option when she was growing up. After completing college, she plunged into work and enjoyed a successful business career for nearly 30 years. However, a near death experience in 2000 brought home the message: ”if you really want to make art…you’d better get to making it!”
Soon after, she left her “day job” and began her fine art studies at Watkins College of Art & Design in Nashville TN, graduating with an AFA in 2002. She’s been making art ever since.
She has worked in a variety of mediums and genres including figure, landscape, and most recently abstraction. Her work has been juried into competitions both regionally and nationally.
“Bold colors and composition draw me into the creative process. The body intuitively knows what it needs, and if you listen to that voice, it will guide you to the place you need to be at that moment. By creating calm among the chaos of life, I am able to hear my own voice, and thus, better hear the voices of those around me.”
