NCCA Friday Artist Feature!

               

Every month, NCCA features an artist in the NCCA Network Newsletter.  This month, Karen Vierneisel's work was featured.  

As a retirement coach, Karen speaks to groups about the importance of knowing one’s purpose and turning one’s dreams into reality.  So two years into retirement, she began taking art classes at the Go Get Your Smock studio in Ravenswood Manor.  In painting, Karen found her new purpose.  She is now living her dream of being an artist.

Besides studying at Go Get Your Smock, Karen has also studied with sea scape painter Joyce Ortner in California, landscape painter Didier Nolet, and more recently with urbanscape artist Robert Brasher.  In Fall 2008, The North Shore Art League accepted two of her 12 x 12 oil panels in its juried show “Inchworks.”  During the Old Town Art Fair last June, her 16 x 20 acrylic landscape, “Santa Rosa Mountain Trail,” sold at the Old Town School of Art’s student/faculty show.
