Lorin Vieira

Note: Lorin Vieira has joined the ranks of talented women artists inspired by the landscape and inhabitants of her home state of Louisiana. While not formally trained in art, Vieira felt compelled to start painting in order to capture and honor the entrancing scenes of her surroundings. Her work in acrylic is developed with countless layers of color to capture the fleeting beauty of light. From the marsh to an urban garden, Vieira brings her unique vision to life on canvas. Her work also draws inspiration from Brazil, the home country of her husband, and her travels. Moody skies, deep shadows with saturated earth tones and glints of reflected sunshine are her hallmarks. Recently featured in three group exhibitions with likely many to follow, Vieira is represented by galleries based in New Orleans, Little Rock and Charleston.
