Cilenia has been teaching computer-aided graphics professionally for over 20 years, both privately and within the companies she has worked for.  She chose to put all that aside 3 years ago to pursue her own dream of owning her own business, pouring herself into her art and sharing with others the passion she feels when she creates.

Since she first started teaching herself how to use computers for designing in 1986, Cilenia has learned to master several graphic programs, and continues to push the limits of learning. She finds Photoshop, Art Rage and AutoCAD to be her best outlets for creating digitally.  In her real life art, she continues to play with her "colors", as she likes to call her inks and paints, by experimenting (playing) in her art studio loft with her talented granddaughter, Miss Bailey, and daughter Kara, just about on a daily basis. 

Cilenia lives on the edge of the Mojave desert and Mount Charleston located just on the outskirts of Las Vegas, NV and loves the exquisite beauty that is ever changing between these two extreme seasonal environments.  She can be found taking in the sites of the desert and mountains on her Harley motorcycle, just as often as seen wild flower hunting through the canyons in her vintage petticoats and dresses.

Cilenia’s dream is to share her love of art and inspire others to find their inner artist by helping them see deeper into the beauty found in our everyday lives. She firmly believes there is an artist lurking in all of us, and we only need to believe it to release it.
