Karges Fine Art is proud to present the work of contemporary plein-air painter Cindy Baron, an award-winning artist whose paintings are nationally recognized for their vitality, craftsmanship, and sensitivity to light. Working in both oil and watercolor, Baron is widely admired for her ability to capture the subtle beauty of landscapes and coastal scenes through direct observation and refined technique.
Baron’s work is distinguished by its versatility across mediums. Her oil paintings are known for their rich color and confident brushwork, while her watercolors reveal a softer, intricately detailed approach. She is among a select group of contemporary artists to achieve signature status in both oil and watercolor, a rare accomplishment that reflects peer recognition at the highest level. She became a Signature Member of the American Watercolor Society in 2000 and a Signature Member of Oil Painters of America in 2012.
A respected educator as well as a practicing artist, Baron conducts workshops nationally and internationally and is a highly sought-after instructor. She has taught at the Rhode Island School of Design and has frequently served as a juror for major exhibitions. Her dedication to plein-air painting and arts education has made her an influential figure within the contemporary American representational art community.
Baron is a member of the historic California Art Club and a Signature Member of the American Impressionist Society. Her work has received numerous honors, including multiple “Best in Show” awards and the Irvine Museum Award of Excellence. Through her plein-air landscapes and coastal scenes, Cindy Baron continues to celebrate the enduring beauty of the natural world.
