SUMMARY:Art Exhibit Reception: Into Focus
DESCRIPTION:View this art exhibit at Springer Cultural Center then stop by the reception on January 16 from 5:30-7pm to enjoy refreshments\, speak to the artist\, and have the opportunity to purchase a piece! \n\n\n\n\nArt Exhibits\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Statement\n\n\n\nI create artwork through the manipulation of oil paint. My artistic journey started after attending an art exhibition approximately 10 years ago which prompted me to buy a few brushes\, tubes of paint\, and canvases. With no formal art education\, my present set of skills are the product of failures\, successes\, and most importantly\, experimentations. Only recently has by artistic path come into focus. Exaggerating color and contrast within a scene from nature fuels my passion for art. Beauty can be found around every corner.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibit Reception: A Closer Look
DESCRIPTION:View this upcoming art exhibit at Springer Cultural Center starting November 2nd then stop by the reception on November 7 from 5:30-7pm to enjoy refreshments\, speak to the artist\, and have the opportunity to purchase a piece! \n\n\n\n\nArt Exhibits\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Bio\n\n\n\nCindy Westfall is a long time Urbana resident who explores her love of expression through a variety of media. \n\n\n\nShe grew up in rural south-central Illinois surrounded by untidied nature\, that oldest and most potent inspiration. While studying Botanical Science as an undergrad at Eastern Illinois University\, she re-ignited her childhood love of art and took on an art minor\, then after her undergraduate work was completed\, earned a Master of Art degree with a focus in metalsmithing. \n\n\n\nContinuing her exploration of different media and techniques\, in recent years Cindy has taken further classes and workshops\, branching into printmaking\, oil painting and charcoal drawing. Her primary inspiration remains our natural world\, especially those moody parts of it that might be hidden or overlooked\, and she hopes always for the moment of connection when the viewer sees\, with new eyes\, what the artist sees – whether that be light\, form\, detail\, or composition. She has no plans on leaving off this endeavor\, so long as ideas and ability permit.  \n\n\n\nCindy has 25 years of experience as a bench jeweler and jewelry designer and works at Robert’s – The Fine Art of Jewelry in downtown Champaign. \n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Statement\n\n\n\nI intend to make you see with other eyes. \n\n\n\nThe artist\, I believe\, cannot help but to say something. The very act of creation is a statement\, in and of itself\, always; it says “look\, look! Here – this is how I see. I pass that on to you\, in whatever way I can.’ \n\n\n\nHopefully\, you will be compelled to follow. \n\n\n\nI have always been inspired by the things around me\, whether natural or man-made. I like the moody corners of things\, the solidity of common objects\, the unexpected interplay of shapes. I could say my inspiration comes from ‘nature\,’ but that means everything. I am inspired by the world\, revealed and hidden. Often\, we overlook\, or never notice\, or assume that the things around us hold no secrets\, but to the eye of the artist\, everything holds secrets. Everything speaks. It is only up to us to translate\, that others too might see.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR!
