Edge of Daybreak II
Cindy Lesperance
Cindy Lesperance loves spending time in nature, traveling, and learning about other cultures. Always aware of color, pattern, and texture, these life experiences are inspiration for her work. The inherent warmth and luminosity of encaustic, combined with the tactile effect achieved with her signature drop method of applying the paint, combine to engage those who encounter it. Each piece becomes a testament to the interplay of color, echoing the vibrant palette of a sunset, the nuanced tones of a rain storm, or the rich hues of a bustling market-a celebration of nature’s palette and the indelible imprints left by my travels.
Quote from the artist: "The Awakening Light collection began in quiet yet powerful early morning moments, as I witness the sunrise from my bedroom window and continued to include sunrises and sets from my travels. Each offering a unique composition—a delicate dance between color and shadow, warmth and coolness, light and dark. I am captivated by the way these moments never repeat, yet always feel familiar. Through these works, I invite the viewer to pause and appreciate the quiet wonder of the everyday."

About the Artist

Cindy Lesperance
Cindy Lesperance is an award-winning artists based in Chicago, where she operates her private studio in the northwest suburbs.
Cindy loves spending time in nature, traveling, and learning about other cultures. Always aware of color, pattern, and texture, these life experiences are inspiration for her work. Exploring various mediums over the years, including mixed media, printmaking, photography, and cold wax, Lesperance has found her artistic home in encaustic, a fusion of beeswax, Damar resin, and pigment. It captivates me with its translucency and the limitless dimensionality that can be achieved with it. Very early in her exploration of encaustic (2013), she developed a signature method of applying minute droplets of medium to the surface of the painting. This technique creates a tactile texture that engages those who encounter it and makes her work instantly recognizable. Cindy's artist journey continues to be an exploration of this technique, a realm where she pushes the boundaries and uncovers new possibilities. Each piece is an invitation to color, texture and form, a reflection of her lifelong love for nature and her fascination with the world's diverse tapestry of cultures.
