About the Instructor:
Arlene Daniel is a painter with over 30 years of experience working in oil, acrylic, pastel, and charcoal. Largely self-taught, she has also studied with several nationally recognized artists. These influences, along with years of dedicated practice, have helped shape her distinctive approach to painting.
Arlene’s work is rooted in a love for capturing light, atmosphere, and the subtle color relationships found in nature. She is particularly drawn to plein air painting, where working directly from life allows her to experience the joy of translating the fleeting qualities of light and color onto canvas.
