Art Meets Poetry

Cindy Rinne has created fine art for over 25 years. She started creating fiber poetry over twelve years ago. She draws with thread, paints, stamps, burns or bleaches fabric. Cindy writes original poetry which often appears as a part of the art work. Her work emphasizes using fiber as collage with embellishment. She enjoys using vintage laces, buttons, Japanese fabrics among other textures.

Cindy has exhibited internationally. She was a guest speaker at the University of Redlands and had a two-person show there in winter 2008. Cindy exhibited in “Material Girls” at the Riverside Art Museum which included a catalog. She’s had solo shows at the Wignall Museum/Gallery at Chaffey College, at New Pieces in Berkeley and at Soft Expressions in Anaheim. Cindy’s works have been featured in the San Bernardino Sun, Redlands Daily Facts, Riverside Press Enterprise, Los Angeles Times, Art/Quilt Magazine and “Sew Somerset” magazine.
