My name is Cindy Simmonds and my passion for art and animals was evident from a very young age. Many moments of my childhood were spent playing in the yard with the family pets and drawing. Art was always a favorite subject in school and led me towards obtaining a degree in graphic design. The digital word opens many new ways to be creative but I still enjoy putting pencil to paper best!

The inspiration for Furever Studios came when I worked at an animal shelter and started drawing pet portraits as a fundraiser. I decided to turn it into a business and still donate a portion of proceeds towards animals in need.
