Nadya Hizer's Portfolio

 

I have always loved painting but was able to begin to pursue my passion in painting at age 52. We moved to Palatka in 2009, and I found the class at the Larimer Arts Center in 2013, with our wonderful teacher Patrick Rausch. When Patrick moved away, our group enjoyed each other’s company so much, we continued to meet in the “underground studio.” After some experimenting with Acrylic, I found Oil to be my favorite medium because of the richness of color that can be achieved with it, the sensual feel of it as I paint. My favorite subjects are still life, especially flowers, and beautiful nature in land and seascapes. The subjects and techniques are still evolving, as I seem to learn something new with every painting. I feel blessed to continue to have the time and desire to paint.
