The
art examples below are by Ria Winters . The artist was raised in a village
located at the northeast part of the Netherlands that was surrounded by
wetlands. She has drawn and painted since childhood in an atmosphere of
landscapes and indigenous wildlife that has become the subjects of her
work. Exploring the world is a significant part of her life. Ms. Winters has
traveled to the United States, South Africa, Mexico, Kenya, the Arctic and
throughout Europe. Her choice of subjects reflect the animals and scenery she
has witnessed first hand, observed through the eyes of a naturalist, yet
rendered with her expertise as a gifted artist. Having visited Africa several
times, its wildlife has become one of her favorite subjects.
