Charcoal Pencil Drawing Biography

Cindy was born and raised in Northern California. In the early 1980's, she and her two children moved to Michigan. In 2005 she relocated to Delaware, where she now resides.
Cindy enjoys art and has been involved with various forms of art for a good part of her life; with drawing being "her passion". Her artistic talents were also predominant in her careers as a Hairstylist in the 80's, Graphic Arts/Logo Designer for one company, and Newsletter Creator & Editor at another place of employment. She is currently enjoying other successful hobbies such as Photography, Writing and Web Page Design. Some of her recent website accomplishments include: Christians-Today.com, and Christians-Today.com/Ministry, SalvationPrayer.info, Christian-Newswire.com,  CulinaryBarn.com,  OnFire4Jesus.info.

Cindy grew up in an artistic family and has achieved her own success in art with no formal training. She has a "raw talent" for drawing and sketching, which truly shows in her work.

Charcoal Pencil Art is Cindy's favorite type of media because it is a unique form of art that takes patience along with skill, to bring a picture to life with a photo-like quality. Although learning to create realistic works of art is a slow process, the quality, technique and skill in her work has increasingly improved over time. Cindy is currently studying new techniques that will enable her to advance her skills to a whole new level.

This experience proved quite instrumental to Cummings writing; The Enormous Room is Cummings' autobiographical account of his time in the internment camp. E.E. was extremely cautious to attempt to publish The Enormous Room, however after great persuasion by his father, Cummings finally had a copy of the manuscript sent to Boston to be read. (Kennedy p. 213) Cummings greatest fan, Edward wrote after reading his son's manuscript, "I am sure now that you [E.E] are a great writer, and as proud of it now, as I shall be when the world finds out." (p. 213)

Cummings and Brown returned back to the states in January only to see Cummings drafted back to the war that summer. When Cummings returned after the armistice, he moved back in with Brown and soon met his first wife, Elaine Orr (p. 165). In 1920, Cummings began to concentrate on his writing and painting. For the next six years, Cummings wrote many pieces of work, Tulips and Chimneys (1923), & (1925), XLI Poems (1925), and Is 5 (1926). Also during that time, Cummings and Elaine's marriage ended in a rather complicated divorce. Cummings had no concept of how to treat his new wife correctly, so she found herself love in the arms of another man (p. 264).

In the same year that Is 5 was published, Cummings' father was abruptly killed and his mother was injured seriously in a car accident. With his new love-interest, Anne Barton, Cummings found out of his father's death at a small party in New York. Cummings and his sister, Elizabeth, immediately rushed to their mother's bedside. Although she was not expected to live through the week, Rebecca was inspired by her children to continue living and she miraculously survived a fractured skull. E.E. explained the catastrophe in these words,

"... a locomotive cut the car in half, killing my father instantly. When two brakemen jumped from the halted train, they saw a woman standing- dazed but erect- beside a mangled machine; with blood spouting (as the older said to me) out of her head. One of her hands (the younger added) kept feeling her dress, as if trying to discover why it was wet. These men took my sixty-six year old mother by the arms and tried to lead her toward a nearby farmhouse; but she threw them off, strode straight to my father's body, and directed a group of scared spectators to cover him. When this had been done (and only then) she let them lead her away." (Kennedy 293)
