About the Artist

Cynthia Stramaglia has been a life-long resident of Western New York. She was an art major in high school. She has also studied at the Chautauqua Institute. In recent years she has used her artistic inclinations in her work with students ages 8-11 in her work as a counselor. She has an appreciation for fairies and angels and is also a big animal lover so those themes are present in her art work. She is currently owned by three very precious 3-year young cats at her home.

Her work is primarily focused on use of pastels and pencil but she also does work in acrylic paint and sometimes using oils.

Studio Hours

The studio is often open on Summer afternoons during the week from noon till 6pm; and during the Sept-June school year months, I am most often at the studio on weekends.

Other additional hours in the summer months and by appointment.

Call Cynthia at 861-8853 to arrange a prompt sale if you see a piece you would like, or to see more of her work in the studio and to learn current week’s open hours.

Her artwork can always be purchased through the Art & Soul Gift Shop downstairs at MSAC, and she welcomes requests for commissioned work of your pets or a special "angel" in your life.

Watch for further information about upcoming creative self-expression workshops for students ages 8-17.
