Lux in Tenebris

Lux in TenebrisCindy is a passionate artist from Toowoomba, specialising in oil painting and charcoal drawing. Her primary focus is portraiture, seeking to capture and reveal the true essence of the soul the beauty, truth, and divine spark inherent in every individual. From a young age, Cindy was enamoured with drawing and painting, often depicting her favourite birds, lions, pets, and people. These subjects continue to inspire her work.

leaving him powerless to resist her insidious embrace

as her perpetrators were family members

creating works that help her feel both safe and heard
