Cecilia Cardiff

After studying in London during the eighties and returning to the Glasgow art scene, Cecilia has worked as both a designer and an artist. Working in oils, Cecilia’s inspiration is in cityscapes and their lifestyle, observing everyday life and human nature, often injecting light-hearted humour into her painting subject. Light and drama are injected into her work through the use of vivid blocks of colour.

Her paintings evoke her joie de vivre, holidays in Europe, and observations in restaurants and hotels – her collectors around the world pick up on Cecilia’s clever perception of life and her shows often sell out quickly.

After beginning to paint full time Cecilia has exhibited in many prestigious galleries, including at The Royal Glasgow Institute (RGI), The Paisley Arts Institute (PAI) and pre-selection for the prestigious Royal Institute of Oil Painters in London (ROI). Cecilia’s work has gained wide interest in collections at home and abroad.
