Nan Wright began her creative journey as a globe-trotting photographer, capturing everyday life in Asia, Europe, North Africa, and South America. Today, she has traded pixels for pigments, bringing the same eye for light, texture, composition, and subtle quirk to her watercolor paintings.
She has studied with renowned artists such as Karen Vance, Vlad Yeliseyev, and Brienne Brown, developing a distinctive and recognizable style. Her work has been juried into international watercolor exhibitions and has received numerous awards.
Nan’s paintings have been featured annually on the Winter Park Art Trail and in Plein Air @ Altitude in Winter Park, Colorado, since their 2021 beginnings. She has also exhibited in Galveston, Steamboat, Breckenridge, and with Arts for Rural Texas in Fayetteville, and has received six invitations to the prestigious Bayou City Art Festival in Houston.
In addition to exhibiting her work, Nan teaches watercolor classes at the 600-member Watercolor Art Society of Houston, where she also volunteers her time.
She is a member of the American Watercolor Society, National Watercolor Society, Watercolor Art Society–Houston, Outdoor Painters Society, Women in the Visual and Literary Arts, and Fraser Valley Arts.
Each Wednesday we host an art gathering for Seniors. This is a friendly and supportive group - all levels are welcome to join and there is no fee for this class however, online registration is required to participate.
Students bring their own supplies - only water-media please.
This weekly event is a community outreach to seniors 55+ only.
Safety Alert: Individuals attending this activity should be aware that they require the ability to safely descend stairs in an emergency.
