About the Artist

Cindy DiBlasi

Oil/Still Life

Originally from Maryland, I now call Arizona home, where I pursue my passion for oil painting. I  am drawn to the beauty of still life, finding inspiration in classical techniques and the quiet elegance of careful observation and rich detail. I hope that my work brings warmth and timeless beauty to those who experience it. 

My artistic journey began in childhood with a love for sketching and painting. I later studied at  the Maryland Institute College of Art, focusing on graphic design and illustration before  expanding my focus to oil painting. For over a decade, I worked as a designer in the publishing and radio industries while continuing to paint, exhibit, and refine my skills. 

While my career in design and illustration was fulfilling, I always returned to oil painting.  Studying with mentors trained in the Dutch-Flemish tradition deepened my understanding of classical techniques and reinforced my commitment to craftsmanship. After moving to Arizona in 2010, I embraced both my roles as an artist and educator. Teaching at the Scottsdale Artists'  School allows me to share my love of oil painting with young artists and support community outreach programs.
