Cynthia Kagan has engaged in her passion for expressing thought and feeling through art for over 40 years. Since narrowing her focus from the commercial field to the finer arts Cynthia has emerged as a premier portraitist. Her style weds bold interpretation of matter with love of whimsy. The artist is willing to take risk on canvas offering up a fresh approach to Man’s Best Friend and a collection of work that goes straight to the Doghouse.


Cynthia is a native New Yorker transplanted in California. She works in her Santa Monica Canyon studio under the watchful eye of her rescue, Chewy (the canine who started it all), and creates art that captures the heart and soul of her subjects and the attention of an appreciative public. Her work has been featured in galleries, juried exhibits (garnering “Best Artist” awards), several One-Woman shows, mail order catalogues like In The Company Of Dogs, on websites such as this one, in hundreds of retail and business venues around the country, at The Weisman Museum, Pepperdine University, Malibu, CA, and on nationwide T.V. (NBC’s “Totally Pets” and Animal Planet’s “The Beverly Hills Vet”). Visual media is her playground.


The artist dedicates significant time and energy to charitable causes. She has produced work and donated proceeds to many S.A.R. and animal protection organizations. Her post 9/11 “Essence Of America” Tribute Series received national recognition and has resulted in a steady source of revenue for the NYPD Canine Unit.


Cynthia accepts commissions. She also creates personalized greeting cards. Her work is available for widespread distribution (such as gifts and charitable items).
