Cindy Lowy Fess-
Kentucky Artist,
Jeweler, Author, Speaker, Teacher
Meet Cindy Lowy Fess—Born
and raised in the "heart of the Bluegrass," Winchester,
KY, Cindy moved to Louisville in 1981.
“I
have been an artist as long as I can remember,” says Cindy
Lowy-Fess, who loves the creative process and exploring avenues
of artistic expression. “My work is my passion and joy.”
This creative spirit unleashes the
artist’s muse in multiple media. Also an accomplished writer and
speaker, Lowy-Fess’ talents stem from family roots. The works of
her famous father, the late
Homer C. Ledford, a bluegrass and folk musician, legendary
dulcimer maker and inventor of musical instruments, are
currently part of a special exhibit at the Smithsonian
Institution.
Following his path, Lowy-Fess has participated in the 2004
Gallopalooza, Louisville, Kentucky's civic pride project that
features brightly painted, life-size horses; authored a
self-help book, Harmony and Me; and designed handcrafted
jewelry worn by celebrities. Her art has graced the covers of
numerous publications, as well as public institutions and
private business and homes.

A Spiritual Awakening-
I n
1996, Cindy went through a powerful spiritual awakening. Not
long afterwards, an angel appeared to Cindy with a joyful message,
which led her to rededicate her life to helping people by
combining all her creative
talents and abilities.
Not only is Cindy artistic and musical, she also
receives
divine guidance and inspiration through all her senses-- words,
visions, feeling and sensations; Cindy sees, hears and feels the
spirits of departed souls and angels. These spiritual abilities bring profound truth, inspiration
and wisdom to all she
does.
Cindy offers her gifts to others through spiritually guided art,
handcrafted jewelry, inspired speaking, writing, spiritual
counseling, special guided meditations, and intuitive Angel Readings.
Heeding the Call-
How Cindy
was led to use her intuitive/psychic ability to help others.
