“Moonlight Reflections” Oil on Canvas, 20”x16”

After graduating from SUNY New Paltz, NY, with a BFA, Veryal focused exclusively on her oil paintings, working mostly on large paintings (8 x 8 ft, or 8 x 12 ft. But as her work evolved, she began to favor the 4-foot custom made canvas). Although each canvas is custom-made for the idea of the moment, the final paintings often become part of a series.

Living on the East Coast, she had an opportunity to open a gallery for the purpose of renting wall space to both established and emerging artists. This offered new artists a chance to establish and expand their artistic careers. The gallery thrived for several years before the recession. That was when Veryal decided to focus her energy on exhibiting her own artwork, which also was eventful until several more galleries opened as the town became an art community leading to major competitions among the artists.

With the recent move West, Veryal is pursuing her art career with a keen focus and savoring the rich natural resources and unique weather of Nevada as a never-ending inspiration for new work.
