Not sure what to say?

Cecile and I met at a gyrotonic class. A fun companion, she wowed me with her stories of earlier New York and Hollywood soirees. What a character! Rest in peace Cecile and hope yiu meet up with Buddy!!

Rest in peace dear Cecile, I will never forget you.You had a great run&now you are free to join your beloved Buddy.

I first encountered Cecile´s paintings before I met the artist herself. Her cityscapes, often unpopulated, are striking. She was a smart and talented artist and it could not have been easy to make a name for herself in the 1970s, 80s and 90s competitive and male-dominated art world. But she did and helped pave the way for other women following in her footsteps.
