I don't know where to start!

Autumn Magic II

Autumn Magic II took 1st place, People's Choice, for Best-of-the-Rest, November 2011 at Barebrush Gallery.
The Winding Road

Another painting, The Winding Road, was curated for December 1, Best-of-the-Rest, December 2011.  Here is what Barebrush founder Ilene Skeen said about it:

"There are many portraits in December, but the Best-of-the-Rest begins the month with an appropriate “big picture” of the human condition. The Winding Road is an oil painting by Cynthia Angeles of Washington, DC. Although the road appears straight in the image, the trees are overwhelming and the human tiny. The future, implied by possible twists and turns beyond the horizon, is unknown. Undaunted, people keep going. That’s what we do, and sometimes we have a great time doing it. There may be regrets, but also no turning back and few do-overs. Ms. Skeen added, “To me, this painting represents the indomitable human spirit, and in particular, the spirit of Barebrush Artists.”

And, finally, my nude painting below, Trapped, was chosen as Nude of the Day for December 25, 2011 (nothing to do with Christmas).

My studio, my gallery

I have fixed up my studio to showcase most of my paintings on the walls.  The space is limited but I managed to tidy it up such that it looks less cluttered now.  I can now easily invite anyone interested in seeing my art to come in and look around without falling over canvases and boxes.
