Currently based in Mandeville, LA, Cecilia Goett was born and raised in Tampico, Mexico surrounded by water. With architect and designer parents and a family packed with musicians. Goett naturally developed an immense love for nature, music, and the arts. She has been trained in piano since the age of six, guitar at age twelve, and eventually discovered and chose visual arts as a career path. Goett’s work is inspired by the sights she experiences while kitesurfing, traveling and spending time in nature. Channeling the pain experienced through childhood trauma and PTSD, she has powered her passion for creating artwork. Her focus is on personal growth, deep empathy, and love. Her work exudes hope. For Goett, painting is a direct connection with a higher self and spirit.
