Cecilia Paz Mujica was born and raised in Houston, Texas to Chilean parents. She began her artistic life at the age of three, learning and developing skills by observing her father at work on his own art projects. By noting the vibrant color of life all around her, Cecilia has maintained a lifelong interest in capturing some part of life’s splendor in her work. In 2006, Cecilia graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio with degrees in Art and Art History, both with International Honors. In 2007, Cecilia’s Sonata San Antonio was selected as the official poster for the 2008 Fiesta San Antonio, a ten-day, city-wide, multicultural celebration. In 2008, her mural, Life Tree, was included into UTSA’s permanent art collection and presently hangs at the Inclusion and Community Engagement Center at UTSA. As an artist, Cecilia is ever challenging and expanding her creativity by trying different techniques, styles, and subject matters in her work. She currently lives in Schertz, Texas, and works as a freelance artist.
