The Artist

Painting the invisible
forces of nature

Cecilia Santis — known artistically as Cesan Rei — creates abstract works that blur the line between the organic and the extraordinary. Based in Edmond, Oklahoma, her paintings invite you into worlds where paint flows freely, color defies gravity, and texture catches the light.

Working primarily in acrylics, Cecilia moves between two distinct bodies of work: fluid pour paintings with their explosive, naturalistic forms, and textured metallic series where thick, raised paint is dusted in gold, silver, and copper glitter to evoke sound waves, light, and landscape.

The Process

How the
work is made

01

Fluid Pouring

Acrylic paint is thinned to a fluid consistency and poured across the canvas, then tilted and guided to create organic rivers, cells, and veins of color. Silicone oil creates the iconic lace-like cell formations.

02

Textured Impasto

Thick, textured paint is applied with palette knives and brushes, building up ridges and peaks that cast real shadow across the canvas surface — sculptures you can almost hear.

03

Metallic Finish

Fine-grain glitter in gold, silver, copper, and rose gold is pressed into the wet paint, catching light from every angle. Each piece shimmers differently throughout the day as the light moves around it.
