Open Air Painting

Texas Artist and Nature Lover, Exploring Color and Light. Eva grew up in Austin, and has been drawn to art since she was a child. She graduated from college in Austin, where she studied Behavioral Science and Multidisciplinary Fine Art at Concordia University. She now lives just outside the city limits with her family. "You can usually find me painting, but I also love spending time outdoors with my husband and son. Our inspiring surroundings always encourage me to paint. In describing my creative fuel, my work is informed by being in nature and going on hikes, or camping with my family. I paint in varying sizes and enjoy the impact large paintings can produce. I also enjoy making small paintings for my daily painting series. They are a great way for me to explore new ideas and share new work more frequently. Recently, one of my larger paintings, Spring Winds, was in a U.S. Embassy Exhibition in Tanzania, Africa." "Expressive use of color and form are hallmarks in my paintings. Much of my work is landscape based. Representational and recurring themes in my paintings include horizon lines and the architecture of nature. I hope that my work evokes an emotion or memory in the viewer as I try to share a moment of peaceful reflection."
