Drawn to Style

works by Cindy Mauchi

October 3 - November 2  | Opening Reception / Meet The Artist / Friday, October 3 / 5 - 8pm during Art 'Round Town

Drawn to Style reflects artist Cindy Mauchi's passion for fashion and illustration. Through pencil, ink, watercolor, and collage, she brings figures and clothing to life with bold lines, dynamic shapes, and vibrant color creating a narrative of beauty and joy.

In her sketches, she intends to capture movement, attitude, and style–– elements that come together to tell a personal story.

Each piece invites the viewer to experience a sliver of the fashion world–– one that is stylish, expressive, and playful. The work is an interpretation of how the artist sees and feels fashion: mesmerizing, meaningful, and alive.

Cindy Mauchi is a fashion designer and illustrator born in Guayaquil, Ecuador. She moved to New York City to study Fashion Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and went on to work as a Senior Menswear Designer for Nautica and Tommy Hilfiger. In 2014, she relocated to New Hampshire with her husband and two children.

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Mauchi shifted her creative focus toward illustration. She enrolled at the Art Students League of New York, where she continues to study under Charles Nitzberg. His mentorship has been a formative influence in shaping her approach to fashion illustration, encouraging a deeper exploration of form, gesture, and expression.

She currently works as a Fashion Consultant for DKNY and Dogg Supply by Snoop Dogg from her studio in New Hampshire. Her illustrations have been exhibited at the Art Students League Salon Show (NYC), the Kittery Art Association (Maine), and the Mosaic Art Collective (New Hampshire).
