Cindy Ruskin

Cindy Ruskin is an artist originally from South Africa, who holds a BA in Art History from Harvard and has studied painting in San Francisco and New York City.

“I paint magical fairytale worlds and funny, uplifting stories full of light and dark twists that are both visually engaging and meaningful. I try to get to the heart of difficult emotional issues by treating them with a light whimsical touch. The challenge is to find the right balance.”

Cindy has exhibited with PxP Contemporary Gallery, the TMP Gallery, the Camelback Gallery, and the Arts to Hearts Project. Other exhibitions included a solo show in New York City, sponsored by ChaShaMa and a one-week-long guest show at the Matthew Marks Gallery, benefiting the Duk Lost Boys Clinic the Sudan. Cindy works from her studio in Connecticut.
