Artists Describing Their Art:
Cindy Pinnock - Artist Statement My heart goes into all that I do whether it be from cooking gourmet dishes, to 3 dimensional art works that adorn my home or to my warm embracing landscaping that surrounds my house for guests.

My primary visual interests are water and the phenomenal forms that reside upon and within the watery plane. I love the tension created by objects such as leaves and lily pads as they hug the surface. I am fascinated by complicated levels of space created by trees, reeds, and other plants reflected in the water from above, combined with vines, leaves, and fish as they loom just below the surface.
