Cassandra is a native Houstonian who has been painting oils & acrylics for over 25 years. After retiring from the corporate world she dedicated herself to her young family and in this environment, her artistic creativity flourished. Cassandra’s oil and acrylic paintings focus on nature’s gifts (butterflies, exotic trees, assorted blossoms, moonlight scenes) with the hopes of carrying the viewer off into another world, a dream world. After creating "Freedom" an abstract oil painting of a blue butterfly, she was captivated by the natural beauty of butterflies and inspired to create art using real, preserved butterflies. The butterflies used in Cassandra’s work are sustainably sourced from all over the world selected for their original unadulterated natural colors and beauty. With every work, her goal is to invoke a sense of life, resurrection and timelessness.
Cassandra’s works have been featured in the auctions at the galas of prestigious organizations such as the Houston Grand Opera, Houston Museum of Natural Science and the Alzheimer’s Association. She has been featured in the Houston Chronicle, Art Houston Magazine, Latino Leaders Magazine and other publications.

"Life – in all it’s beauty, fragility and ability to transform – has always been my inspiration. I began my artistic journey with oils and acrylics when I was 20 years old. It’s no wonder that as a painter I became enamored with butterflies and their miraculous, thought-provoking transformation. After painting a few butterfly pieces, I immediately turned my attention to the real thing and began preserving this wonder of nature in various art forms.

My butterfly clocks capture the timeless beauty of real butterflies, in their natural, unadulterated state. In a world where human activity and global warming and climate change threaten many butterfly species, I hope my clocks can preserve a record of this wonder of nature for future generations. By ensuring that I use only sustainably sourced butterflies I can also make my own small contribution to the survival of these species.

I strive to preserve the beauty of this delicate species and, in a sense, resurrect it through my art. My goal is to invoke a sense of life, resurrection and timelessness to all those who experience my art."
