Art Cie
MMXXIV
Two Thousand Twenty-four
Hello! Thanks for connecting. Welcome to my creativity journal, “The Art of Cie Ja” aka “Art Cie”.
I’ve been creating digital art, updating site content, reimagining and revising the site, drawing from photo reference, working on unfinished projects, participating in zoom drawing, collaging old newsprint sketches, painting in sketchbooks, photographing and uploading archived work, creating new work from archived, and exploring to create. The year continues.
In an effort to unify the site into one, a visual site menu is in development. I started this project in October and got half way through the alphabet. November started the other half of the alphabet. I guess I didn’t realize the amount of content I had created in the 17 years of cieja.com. I also realize there is still a large amount of content that has yet to be added and more that needs updating. I am grateful for your continued support and encouragement. Thank You.

_C______________________ Cie Ja
This subdomain is being reviewed and something new is on the horizon.
_C___________________ Cie Ja Vie
Cie Ja Vie is the subdomain for the Life Draw Art of Cie Ja. This subdomain has a new home page. Cie Ja Vie got a new name (formerly Cie La Vie), a new look, and has been my focus recently. Something new? It’s likely in that subdomain. Pages for journals and sketchbooks link to more pages that focus on the work within each sketchbook or journal. There is a page with a focus on blind contour work and one with a focus on the photo reference art models. Of course, there is also a life model section with life model pages. You will also find life draw collage and life draw digital art pages.
_C______________ Cinnamon Teal
_C________________ Collaboration
Another section in the Life Draw subdomain is Collaboration. So many opportunities to collaborate with amazing artists exist. I am grateful for the collaborations that I have participated in. I look forward to the possibilities ahead. When I finish with more organization of the collaborations in my archives a Collaboration page should emerge. Stay tuned.

More work is coming online and being created. Updates are ongoing. Check each of the subdomains for more.

_W_________________ Way I Cie It
The Way I Cie It is my photography subdomain.
Interestingly, I stopped toward the end of 2019 as we entered the mask era. Photography has been intermittent since then, at best. There are still images I haven’t seen or even removed from the camera (the part of 2019 that was never processed). I do have plans to breathe life into this section again and finish what is unfinished. I’m hopeful this section will be unmasked in due time.
I love living in San Diego. I enjoy birdwatching, sunsets, parks and nature trails, urban and cityscape, night photography and more.
