Cece works out of her studio in Stockton, California creating commisioned portraits from pictures, slides and live sittings.
Cece is a painter of insightful portraits with the vigorous brushwork of a kinder, gentler Alice Neel. Her genuine affection for her subject fills her canvases with a humanistic warmth. Cece captures the character of her sitters with brilliant clarity, making us feel that we almost know these people.
