Cindy Rosen was born into a sheltered Christian home in 1951, accepting Jesus as her Lord and Savior at age 13. At 18 she chose marriage over a college education, to a Christian boy, 19, whom she loved, and he became a bi-vocational pastor in 1980. That year she began a lifelong effort, going part-time to accommodate her family, to attain a degree in art, and graduated with an MFA (Master of Fine Art) in 2006. Teaching Sunday school to ages 2 to 82 over a span of more than 20 years has brought a good understanding to what the Word of God has to say. An Artist-in-Residence experience at Wesley Theological Seminary, and relationships she has made in CIVA (Christians in the Visual Arts), have strengthened her passion to incorporate faith and art. We are such a visual society and she wants her art to bring people to a closer walk with God, or at least ask questions.

Cindy has two children, a son and a daughter; two step sons; seven grandchildren; and one great-grandson. She has been with her children through many trials in their lives. Her marriage ended in 2005 and her former husband remarried in 2006.

2012 she met her second husband who was a pastor and the love of her life; they married in December of 2012. The Lord took him home unexpectedly July 7, 2013. The thing she misses most was the time they spent together in Bible devotions and prayer on a daily basis.

She has experienced loss of two husbands and her father to death when she was 35, rejection, abuse, loneliness, and the challenges of raising Godly children in an ungodly world; but always has found hope in her Lord. God became her provider, lawyer, comforter, friend, counselor, and husband. Life’s lessons have brought her to the place where she knows God is always faithful, available, and His Word is true and alive. God is more than enough.

Cindy would like to share with women who are having trouble holding onto hope; to give hope of healing, and grace through God’s Word and experience; using her artwork as a tool.
