  • Cynthia Ligeros is inspired by the vibrant, ever-changing urban landscapes surrounding us, contrasted against the unique and pristine beauty of the natural world.

    She approaches each painting with a single driving emotion. In the beginning, she creates an under-painting that allows the discovery of naturally organic forms on the canvas. Through an artistic dialogue with the painting, she composes and unifies the organic forms, until a completed abstract painting develops, inspired by the cycles, emotions, and equilibrium of our ever-changing environment.

    This layering technique mirrors the larger theme of her work: the hard edges of our structured world contrasted against the organic contours of the natural world. On a metaphorical level, the art of Cynthia Ligeros explores the idea of the deeper subconscious self unifying with the higher self, to make us whole.

    Her artwork has been acquired by Colorado Creative Industries (for University of Colorado Boulder), The Longmont Justice Center Art On The Move, St. Regis Hotels, and collectors across the United States and Canada, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. She has also appeared in Professional Artist magazine and on FOX News.
