About the Artist

Cassandra Reeves is a singer, energy healer, shamanic practitioner, and artist. She received her BA degree in Fine Art and Anthropology at California State University Stanislaus. She has shown in a number of Northern California galleries including The Center for Contemporary Art, the Kaneko Gallery at American River College, the Gregory Kondos Gallery at Sacramento City College and Solomon Dubnick Gallery in Sacramento. She has also exhibited her work at CSU Stanislaus in Turlock, the Blueline Gallery in Roseville and PlacerArts in Auburn.

Cassandra’s background in shamanism and healing work is evident in all of her work whether it is a collage/assemblage piece, a simple landscape or a Dia de los Muertos image.

“This particular series began as ‘The River Series’ celebrating the American River Confluence and grew into a much larger body of work implementing collage and assemblage. The entire collection has been made with prayer and infused with healing energy. It is my wish that for the viewer this art will inspire a joyful spirit.”
