Piece description from the artist
“Light of The Harvest Moon” captures the mystical glow of the September full moon and the dynamic interplay between light and darkness during autumn's colorful nights. Inspired by the moon’s symbolism of wisdom, intuition, and spiritual connection, the piece reflects its role as a guide toward self-realization by encouraging us to trust our inner knowing.
To evoke the brilliance of moonlight filtering through vibrant fall leaves, I layered pigments with gold and copper leaf, creating depth and a shimmering luminosity. The number eight, subtly embedded within the composition, symbolizes abundance, prosperity, and the enduring inner strength needed to thrive.
The art of Cynthia Ligeros incorporates impressionist elements that reveal an inner landscape to the viewer, an image at once familiar and transcendent. She seeks to explore our place in a world that we have created, yet one which also creates us.
Her paintings often begin with a single driving emotion. From that, an image develops, inspired by the colors, cycles and feelings of the environment.
Sunsets, moonscapes, flowers, the changing seasons — all of these are sources of inspiration, adding richness and layers of complexity to her paintings.
Even industrial spaces and structures figure prominently in her work, contrasting the artifice of the cityscape against the limitless beauty of the sky.
As she paints, she redefines the spaces around us and how they connect to our lives.
Her artwork was recently acquired by Colorado Creative Industries for the newly remodeled Ketchum Arts and Sciences Building at CU Boulder.
Her art has appeared at the Denver Mayor’s Residence, Denver International Airport, the Madden Museum, Denver Botanic Gardens, Professional Artist Magazine, FOX News, and galleries from San Francisco to New York City.
