Cindy Walton, originally of St. Petersburg, Florida, is a long-time resident of Asheville, North Carolina. Being a committed artist from her childhood, she proceeded to earn a BA in Studio Art from Salem College and a BFA in Painting from the University of North Carolina at Asheville. At its roots, Walton’s work is spontaneous. She emphasizes nature, shape, form, and color, but this is all achieved by first applying paint randomly to the surface and embarking on a journey through the process of painting. Her process is an emotional reaction to the paint and environment, which in the end creates a piece of the artist’s inner-self that ignites a mutual connection within the viewer. Walton is an active teacher of her craft and has received multiple fellowships around the country to continue to develop as an artist. Her work has been exhibited internationally and has also become part of major corporate and private collections throughout the years.
