Cyndy Carstens's Gallery

Hi Cyndy,
Thank you for your wonderful comments. I haven't been on in awhile as you can probably tell. I've been involved in remodeling in preparation for my parents
and trying to squeeze art into any spare moment. It's a beautiful time, but hard to figure out a schedule to do all these wonderful things including this.

Hi Cindy,

Sorry I didn't reply to your post until now--My father-in-law was in the hospital most of July and I'm just catching up. . I have not idea what to do as a group leader. I'm not even sure what group. . . . Can you provide a little more information?

It seems I can't leave a comment on your "Featured Artist" post. Soooo......I love your expressively surreal skyscapes. I hope all is well with your mother. Care giving can't be easy, but that is what we do for those we love. Best of luck with your family and your artistic ventures. Keep painting. I'm looking forward to more.

Hey Cyndy,

I do check in with A2A everyday for a bit so I'll keep my eyes open for more info. If need be though, my email is: jcwgpwg@shaw.ca
I am going out of town for fun, infact it's rather exciting. My 11 year old daughter has been at a month long summer camp at the National Ballet School of Canada and they have asked us to come out at the end of the program because they are talking of offering Phoebe a spot in their professional ballet and academic year long program! I don't know whether to be excited or freaked out! At the moment I'm opting for the excited avenue and I'll take it from there once I learn more!
As to my paintings they are 3D. I use a product called Sculptamold to create sculptural relief on wood panels and then paint them with acrylic paints. My next project that I would like to try though is to go completely 3D and make my humourous characters totally free standing, preferably life size, but I think I'll start small first to get the hang of it.
Anyway, I will definitely try to be there for the next call, looking at the calendar I may have a timing issue with my son going to a culinary camp, but will do my best.

Cheers,
Alison

Hello Cyndy,
I was told by Aletta de Wal that you are in charge of the next group phone call. I'm not sure I get how it works and unfortunately I'm away from July 30th - August 9th but if not for this one then I'd love to join in on the next. Could you let me know how I go about doing that.
Thank you so much,
Alison

PS. I've just watched a slide show of your work and I think your pieces are incredibly beautiful. I tend more to the whimsical humourous side in my creations, but I always appreciate those that can make such epic works, works that are so grand they leave me speechless. All the best, A.
