Celebrating CJ Hendry’s Newest Artworks with Casa Dragones Joven

To honor the surging popularity of contemporary artist CJ Hendry, 250 guests were invited to a cocktail celebration showcasing some of her most recent works in Miami, Florida at the waterfront home of Market America’s founder, James Ridinger.

Some of the evening’s attendees included David and Victoria Beckham, Miami Heat basketball player Chris Bosh as well as Russell Simmons, producer and co-founder of Def Jam Recordings. With several pieces by Hendry displayed throughout the space, guests could admire her work while dancing and enjoying Tequila Casa Dragones Joven.

Hendry, known for her incredibly detailed, hyper realistic drawings has already developed a strong New York City fan base and was joined at the event by many notable guests. Each of CJ Hendry’s hand-drawn masterpieces require an unfathomable amount of skill, patience and precision. Her drawings are so precise that they are often confused for a black and white photograph.  She has risen to the top of the art world in just a few years time and now has sold many of her drawings to well-known owners such as fashion designer Vera Wang, actor David Caruso, and rapper Kanye West.
