Where the Light Gets Through

Original painting on canvas

Even the heaviest clouds have edges, and that’s where the light gets through. A sky full of soft gray and lavender clouds, every rim glowing silver.

Meet the artist

Hi, I’m Cynthia

I’m a painter, a mom, and a recovering perfectionist, making art in a little studio in Utah.

A little magic

I paint things that feel whimsical and a little enchanted: the kind of piece that makes a room feel lighter.

Made in the in-between

Between work and family, these paintings happen in the quiet pockets of the day, one layer at a time.

A small studio, a real person

Every original is painted, packed and shipped by me. Prints are made to order, just for you.
