About

IN A WHIMSICAL WORLD OF WOOD, IMAGINATIVE WORKINGS TOWARDS FEMINISM AND IT’S ENIGMATIC NATURE.

The organic element of the raw wood in contrast to the miniature details Cassandra
Rowden’s pieces help form an other worldly feel.  Cassandra Rowden asks the audience to imagine the rest of the story of each piece. 

     The imagination of other worldly creators and religious paintings such as The Tilma have inspired her pieces.  Cassandra enjoys working with basswood, acrylics, and powdered pigments. When viewing her pieces from one direction you may see non-iridescent forms or different colors than viewing in another direction. Each piece is created under a magnifying lens to help with sharpness and intricate detail.  Cassandra’s philosophy is, “When you are self-taught, you never lose your artistic value.”  As a native to Long Beach and a self-taught artist, she has had serendipitous artist opportunities fall into place.
