Cecilia Swatton
Cecilia creates digital artwork as well as three-dimensional mixed-media art ranging from large wall hangings to small tabletop decorations. Artwork by Cecilia has been published in Cloth Paper Scissors, Expression, Scrap ‘n Stamp, Altered Arts, Somerset Studio Galleria, The Spring Hill Review, Stampers Sampler and Inspirations. Until its 2007 demise, she was one of the Contributing Designers for The Rubber Stamper magazine, where her work was often published and once highlighted as the cover illustration. One of her digital artworks will appear in the Summer 2009 issue of Somerset Digital Studio and her three-dimensional artwork will appear in The Latest Trends in Mixed Media Arts, Volume II, a book scheduled for fall 2009 publication. She is also an independent designer of images for rubber stamps. Her artwork is often displayed in venues near her New Jersey home. Most recent was the juried 2009 Monmouth Festival of the Arts, where her art was accepted into three categories: fine art (for her mixed-media wall hangings), fine crafts (for her altered cigar boxes and trays) and photography (for her digital art.)

For her, artmaking is contemplative prayer.
