2024 Participating Artists

Self-taught painter Ayna Paisley primarily exhibits works in acrylics and oils. Growing up with artist parents, Ayna established her practice at a young age. Her current focus lies in creating vibrant and atmospheric landscapes that capture the beauty and majesty of the natural world in a way that is both awe-inspiring and deeply emotive.  Her work is characterized by a bold use of color and light, following the steps of the great luminists with a passion for strong contrasts and designs of painterly realism. She has lived and exhibited her work in Russia, the UK, and currently resides in the USA, frequently traveling throughout the Northeast, collecting ideas and inspiration for her paintings
