“I was never as aware of how beautiful the world is until I started to paint,”
Cindy Crimmin says. “It makes life better. People who don’t paint don’t know
this.” Now a decade into her journey as a painter, the Acton, Mass., artist is
attuned to see beauty everywhere—in the colors refracted from a puddle, the
intersection of a chair against a wall, the light falling on a tree trunk. These
inspirations can turn into mild obsessions and then full-blown series, like the
paintings of falling water shared here. Once the artist turned her attention to
the subject of moving water, the potential for beauty was apparent.
