Arts by Artist Cindy

Healing through the Arts

Cindy's art was displayed in the Cancer Center at St.Johns Mercy Hospital, St.Louis , MO. Invited by the Best of Missouri Hands, hopefully sharing the arts will brighten the day for the viewer.

Cindy is presently the Featured Artist at Best of Missouri Hands website. Cindy Dietrich Logan was raised in Ft. Worth, Texas. Her artist talent was recognized by her second grade teacher, with her painting traveling to Europe after receiving an area award.

After graduation with a B.A. in Art, English and Secondary Education from William Woods College in Fulton, Missouri, Cindy returned to Ft.Worth and taught art.

In 1976, Cindy and her husband moved to Louisiana, Missouri, teaching art privately as she raised her three children and continued her education as an artist. She received her Master’s of Arts in Teaching from Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri with a concentration in Visual Communication.

Cindy began teaching at Louisiana High School where she organized the National Art Honor Society. Many of her students selected a career in art. Cindy left public teaching to pursue her own career as an artist and teach private art classes.

The philosophy shared in her paintings is to share emotions and feelings to the viewer which cannot be put into words. Hopefully the viewer will react to the work in ways they do not always understand. There is a meaning in everything and one of the messages in her work is "searching for the truth (the light)". Each person must find their own truth which makes this search more difficult.

Cindy was asked and approved to sit on the Missouri Arts Council as a member of the Community Arts Panel which decides grants to various Arts organizations.

Cindy joined the Raintree Arts Guild and became the first President of the Raintree Arts Council, grouping artists together and finding ways to market ideas. Today, this council operates through the direction of a 12 member board, of which Cindy is the Visual Arts Representative. Cindy is a juried member of the Missouri Artisans Association, better known as The Best of Missouri Hands, National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society, First Presbyterian Church, the P.E.O. Sisterhood and Alpha Phi International Fraternity, and the William Woods University National Alumni Advisory Board.
