Artists

Chris Hardy is a Phoenix artist with a fascinating collection of multimedia paintings and drawings. He has a truly unique body of work.

Born of heartache, Cyndy’s paintings are a way of translating pain and yearning into hope. Each work of art is a meditation on the assurance of beauty and tranquility even in our most challenging moments.

Cyndy’s skyscapes are her trademarks. While landscapes have always been her forte, her focus shifted to the sky during a defining period of her life. Caring for her sick mother, watching the deterioration of one who had loved her best in the world, Cyndy was struck in a moment of exhaustion and despair by the overarching serenity of a sunset. As she held the image within her mind throughout the grueling weeks, months, and years of care, she realized that focusing on that beauty made her a better caregiver, a more loving person, and a more grateful member of her family. Subsequent moments of distress within her family have brought her back to these moments of hope, increasing the power and drama of the skyscapes she paints.

I have been drawing since I was able to hold a crayon. After graduating high school in Iowa, I moved to Arizona to attend a year long graphic design program with an emphasis on traditional illustration at Phoenix Institute of Technology. I then studied at Gateway Community College and received an Associates of Applied Science Degree in Advertising Art in 1994. I encourage you to browse through my art and contact me if you have any questions or comments.
