2020 Plein Air South Keynote Speaker Peggi Kroll Roberts
Award-winning artist, Peggi Kroll-Roberts, was trained at Arizona State University and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Peggi worked as a fashion and advertising illustrator before making the transition into fine art. Using intense color and value to accentuate her subject, she moved into fine art with a bold palette, a love for small paintings and a very loose style that achieves a lot with a few very energetic brush strokes. She prefers to suggest reality than render it. 800/378-8419

Inspired by her children, she paints beach scenes and other aspects of their lives. She also breaks away from the conventional still life by painting scenes of cosmetics and the occasional coffee cup or slab of butter. Peggi’s work gives us a new appreciation of our own daily life. Peggi currently teaches still-life and figure workshops with Plein Air Liaison, PAL atelier™ in California, Scottsdale Artists’ School in Arizona, as well as several other locations across the country and abroad.
