About the Artist
I have been painting for most of my life but it took me awhile to
start selling my artwork.
I attended Edinboro State Teachers College in Pennsylvania
with a major in Art Education prior to turning to business as a major
at Edgewood College in Madison, WI. I eventually earned an MBA from
the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Art was put on the back burner while I honed skills in
financial analysis and computer software. I discovered that developing
web sites was a good way to meld both my business skills and creative
penchants.
I tend to do a lot of nature themes, but still enjoy flights
of fancy and abstracts. Feathers, hides and rocks give me new challenges
with every creation because nature tends not to be uniform. Using natural objects as canvasses ensures that each work of art is unique.
I worked for awhile at the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
Wisconsin is blessed with wonderful natural resources and the beauty of the
state is an inspiration for me in my artwork.
Currently, I work at the Wisconsin Lottery as its webmaster.
I hope you enjoy your experience on my Painted Nature website!
Sincerely,
Marsha Vomastic
