Nancy DeWeese Watercolor Artist
Originally from Wyoming, Nancy DeWeese now lives in Los Gatos and paints in her sunny garden studio. She works predominantly in watercolors and delights in painting still lifes, landscapes, and portraits. She has studied with several outstanding local artists including Oneida Hammond and Rebecca Alzafon.
Her work is shown at Aegis Gallery in Saratoga.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT:
“Ever since I was a child, I have loved painting, drawing and dance. But the demands of family and children left little time free to pursue all these interests. And so I concentrated primarily on dance, taught for a number of years and still continue to take class on a regular basis. And now, the beauty is that my life circumstances allow me to devote plenty of time to painting and drawing as well. As my technical ability in dance is on a gentle downward slope, my skill as a watercolorist is on the rise—a very fortuitous balance.”
“Watercolors are a complete delight and total frustration all at once. They run, they mix, they turn too dark or dry too light. They will always surprise and challenge me with their awesome complexity and deep simplicity.”
