Piece description from the artist
Acceptance is about seeing the world as it actually is, instead of how we might wish it could be different. I truly believe that if you've been having a difficult time, the more you try and resist that difficulty, the worse it can make you feel. It's better to accept the truth and allow life to happen. That's what I did in this painting, by allowing the medium to show through.
Liberation and Acceptance are companion paintings. They can be displayed together or separately. Both paintings feature controlled pouring, brushwork, sponging, and collage with gold leaf, along with some experimental techniques I tried with just these two paintings.
The art of Cynthia Ligeros incorporates impressionist elements that reveal an inner landscape to the viewer, an image at once familiar and transcendent. She seeks to explore our place in a world that we have created, yet one which also creates us.
Her paintings often begin with a single driving emotion. From that, an image develops, inspired by the colors, cycles and feelings of the environment.
Sunsets, moonscapes, flowers, the changing seasons — all of these are sources of inspiration, adding richness and layers of complexity to her paintings.
Even industrial spaces and structures figure prominently in her work, contrasting the artifice of the cityscape against the limitless beauty of the sky.
As she paints, she redefines the spaces around us and how they connect to our lives.
Her artwork was recently acquired by Colorado Creative Industries for the newly remodeled Ketchum Arts and Sciences Building at CU Boulder.
Her art has appeared at the Denver Mayor’s Residence, Denver International Airport, the Madden Museum, Denver Botanic Gardens, Professional Artist Magazine, FOX News, and galleries from San Francisco to New York City.
