Wanda Guy
I have always loved creating art and being around creative people. By taking workshops and classes I have met many artists who have been an inspiration. Working with members of CCAA has also been an asset to my relationship with art. I believe thinking creatively is essential to fulfillment and quality of life. God gives everyone a means to be creative. We just have to bring that concept to life. That concept to me is creating paintings that convey the message of beauty in things we see every day, such as trees, mountains, and faces. Learning and growing with something you love is continuous and never disappoints. How can you not have a passion for it? As Picasso said "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life!"
Isabelle Parks
“My name is Isabelle Parks and I am a senior in highschool. I have always been into art, but my freshmen year, I picked it up and never put it down. I have used it as an outlet for many things and it has also gave me some of my really close friends along with it. I am so excited to see what the future holds with my art & me.”

Cindy Marrazzo
“FROM ART TO FIRE AND EXPLOSIVES AND BACK AGAIN!”
Born and raised near Chicago, Cindy is an international painter, New York City Salmagundi Club Exhibition Artist, engineer, and scientist living in Jacksboro, Tennessee. Her art education began with private oil painting lessons during her elementary school years. She continued her studies throughout high school years, receiving multiple awards which included the top 100 finalists in the country for the scholastics arts award in 1971. Cindy and her 3 art teachers had their sights set on an art scholarship to the Art Institute. Her parents, however, wanted something more practical when she graduated high school at the age of 16. So at 17, Cindy enlisted in the Marine Corps. After leaving the Marine Corps, Cindy graduated with multiple degrees in the sciences. That science education has enhanced her art knowledge and ability, especially in classes such as anatomy, light & reflection, fluid mechanics (water, clouds and wind movement), color spectrum and architecture. Although Cindy had been passionate about art since she was young, she instead worked with math and science for most of her adult life. After retiring from her engineering job, Marrazzo took a friend’s suggestion and picked up her paint brushes to rekindle her love of painting. Many of Marrazzo’s pieces are painted in the traditional realism style. She often uses math in her design to deliver phenomenal realistic details to every scene, while her use of darks and lights provides amazing light to her paintings.
Marrazzo artwork can be found throughout the US, Canada, and Europe. Marrazzo Art has been awarded multiple solo exhibits in Illinois and Tennessee. She has been invited to exhibit at the Salmagundi Club in NYC. Marrazzo artwork has been awarded “Best of Oils” at Art in the Barn’s juried art show, and 1st place in the local treasures juried award at Art in the Park in Barrington IL. Marrazzo’s artwork is currently displayed at Lindsay’s in LaFollete; White’s in LaFollete; and at the Marrazzo Art Studio Gallery in Jacksboro, TN and is currently a member of the Art Market Gallery in Knoxville, TN.
