Cindy Veltman-Marshall was born and raised in Oregon but has resided in Colorado
for the last thirty five years. Cindy’s interest in art began as a child. Her dad sold her
12-piece zodiac painted-rock art collection at an art auction when she was 11 years
old and the need to create has continued throughout her life.
Originally working as a painter and in charcoal, Cindy became interested in printmaking while
living on the east coast, but as life often has other plans, she was not able to devote time to printmaking until after a twenty-something year hiatus. Once returning to printing
she has developed her own style, incorporating solar-plate etchings into mono prints.
Cindy derives inspiration from nature, travel, and “captured still life”.
The world is a fascinating place with endless opportunities for creativity.
Cindy uses polymer plates for etching, a solar-based product that is also an eco-friendly
way to produce traditional etching plates. The original photos Cindy uses to begin the plate
making process are mostly her own photography, although she sometimes borrows
photos from her husband, Richard.
