Lyn Asselta Interview Jan 2019

Lyn Asselta is our demo and workshop artist for March 2019.  She is our feature Interview artist for January 2019.  Click here to read her full interview.
​


From Lyn, "I truly believe that the most important part of capturing a scene is knowing why you were attracted to it in the first place, and focusing on ways to convey that “spark” or attraction to your viewer.  As for light, the exact same scene can say many different things, depending on how the light is handled.  Using the most effective light to convey the intent of your painting is important."


In addition to her PSA and IAPS-EP credentials, Lyn is a Salmagundi Club member, a member of the League of Professional artists, Founder of the First Coast Pastel Society, and a Member of Excellence in the Southeastern Pastel Society. She is represented by Cutter & Cutter Fine Art Gallery in St. Augustine and Ponte Verde, FL.

Jesse holster Interview February 2019

2/27/2019

0 Comments

 
My portraits are of people with strong character, or of historical significance, or of a person(s) requested by friend or family member. Nothing thrills me more than to see the excitement of a patron pleased and happy with my work!

​I am driven to create. My subjects are usually landscapes, seascapes or portraits. The camera on my cell is a God send, allowing me to capture every day scenes that demand to be painted if I am not equipped for plein air.
