Cindi (formerly Harwood) Rose began doing this art, after discovering at 8 years old that her portraits of animals and people were in high demand. At “For Heaven’s Sake” they will be only $35 each person, with extra copies at $10 a person. Lovely frames and mats will be on hand from $4 to $50. Thus, you can get one for yourself, a loved one, and grandparents. Engaged couples can do one together, and people can have one done to use as a logo! In order to share the love, proceeds for the day will benefit cancer patients & the Silhouettes for Survivors program.
Children do not have to sit still, and hair and clothing can be “fixed” in the silhouette. Cindi will also graciously leave off a double chin when asked in her artwork.
Rose, who is considered the world’s “foremost living silhouette artist” uses natural talents and surgical scissors to capture a likeness, without a sketch or shadow. This insures that the work will have fine-details and embellishments such as stylish hair-dos, ribbons, neck-ties, head-bands, and necklaces with the best details, heirloom quality, and a unique and perfect Valentine’s Gift; that unlike flowers and candy, will be treasured forever.
C. Rose can also do profiles of pets from photos e-mailed to the store ahead of time, or computer printed and brought in. Cindi does people in person, as the camera does “lie” and Cindi sees more than a camera does. The art was popular before photography, and the greatest silhouette artist capture personality and profile, as C. H. Rose does.
There are only around 25 authentic practicing silhouette artists in the world. A silhouette gift lasts forever, and will show that your love will last forever.
