I am a full time artist and have been painting since I was in high school, and author, I do both 2D and 3D art, I have a wide range and work in gauache, acrylic and mixed media. I like to address life in all its wonderful colors in my art, sometimes somber, other times in brilliant spectrum.
I teach art to disenfranchised students I find out in the surrounding area where I live. There are a lot transient families and since I have being doing so for the past 10 years, they find me through people I teach/taught by word of mouth. I do this for free and support it with my own art sales. This is my way of giving back to the community that has supported my art. You can shop with me here:

Because I live semi-offgrid, I spent a lot of time pattern making from handpainted to computer generated. During covid, it became a passion. I now have a brand new business on Etsy where I sell my textile patterns on clothing. You can shop for clothing here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/CecileGraceCharles?ref=l2-about-shopname
Another artist and I are prepping for a temporary art installation to draw focus on the homeless later in the summer of 2024. |
