DELIECE BLANCHARD

IMPRESSIONISTIC, PLEIN AIR, LANDSCAPE

Winston-Salem, NC

Deliece Blanchard paints landscapes, with lyrical and rhythmic marks that reveal her background in music. Her plein air and studio paintings are colorfully impressionistic, and frequently depict her favorite environment, the Blue Ridge Mountains. A cellist, as well as a painter, Deliece has degrees in biology and music from the University of Virginia and taught orchestra in public schools for 24 years. She describes painting plein air as a further step in an appreciation of the natural world, where being outside “with a purpose” makes her feel like a fellow creature on the earth.

Deliece has been juried into 3 American Impressionist Society shows and 2 Oil Painters of America shows. Her work has appeared in Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine.
