Cynthia Kenny (born 1 May 1929) is a British painter known for her sketches, watercolours and oil paintings of the skyline, buildings and landscape in and around Wakefield. Cynthia's artistic talent was noticed at a young age and she went on to work at the West Riding County Architects Department. She studied part-time at Wakefield Art College. She has a particular interest in drawing what she describes as 'dwelling places' and her work provides a record of the changing city of Wakefield. In the early 1970s a pen and ink and watercolour drawing of Garden Street (Westgate) Wakefield was the first of a number of her works to be acquired by Wakefield Art Gallery for its permanent collection.
