Abstract Realism: The Art of Cindy Rockwood Since 1991: A Spiritual Journey through visual art by Cindy L. Rockwood (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781638147497)

A spiritual journey through time contains the consecutive order Cindy Rockwood's artwork from 1983 to 2021 of 266 paintings. Many of these are gifts to people. Abstract realism is the art style she uses since 1991. It is about putting together images that do not belong together. Christopher Selmek initially wrote Rockwood's interview. Cindy took it from there.

Cindy Rockwood became a Christian in 2001 and began painting images related to her spiritual vision dreams, where she learned to explore God, by relying on him. She had tried many things in her painting career--nature, painting sketches, and seeing painting three-dimensional like the dancer. For the first time in 2017, she began to see a color code, and vision of doing three-dimensional work of her 5"x5" paintings, based upon items she saw on the page before she started to paint. She could see these works in view. Spiritually, she relied on God to show her what to do with the new images. She took out a 5.5-by-5.5-inch acid-free paper taped around the edges then waited for the direction that led her to create without plans as she painted. She would see a circle and color in a position where she would start. Then after doing this, more colorful lines would appear and on and on, until the painting felt done. Cindy's main verse that lives by in the Bible: Jeremiah 29:11-13.
