DISESSA S.

Hello! I am a self-taught artist painting in oils. I began my art journey in earnest upon retirement. Most of my work is inspired by experiences in the landscape, and nature. I find refuge in the blue dome of the sky, a flowing river, or the habit of a tree bending to the light. I also love painting animals and birds. I enjoy painting from life setting up still lifes in my studio, en plein air, and also from reference photos I capture on the fly. I can find inspiration just about everywhere. In addition to ACAA I hold memberships with the Academic Artists Association, the Lyme Artists Association, and the New Hartford Artisans Guild. I exhibit in juried art shows in MA, Vt, and CT. My work also has been featured at the Mill District Gallery in Amherst, MA and is currently hanging at the New Hartford Artisans Guild in Ct. Thank you for visiting here today. If you find yourself lingering with a painting or returning to it again and again because it stirs something within you I will have achieved my purpose with that painting.
