Hi! my name’s Cecelia.

But I go by CeCe for short.

While creating has always been a significant part of my life, it wasn’t until I was medically separated from military service and after having my first child that I began taking my art journey seriously. It began as a way to rediscover myself after several life-changing experiences. Eventually, my side hobby grew into a business, and I haven’t looked back since.

My artwork celebrates the delicate balance of nature through surreal and intricate illustrations and paintings. I use my craft to explore my own messy emotions and mental health and find my place in the world. I hope to bring awareness, beauty, and appreciation to these uncomfortable and often overlooked aspects of life. I hope you find the same peaceful contemplation in my work.

My artwork has been featured in many juried art exhibitions nationwide. I travel throughout the US, selling my artwork at conventions and shows, as well as in small local shops and businesses. My family and I currently live in Colorado Springs.

Whenever I’m not creating art, I explore the world with my children and husband and add more plants to my houseplant collection.
