Wendy Oliver is a Bay Area native and grew up in Walnut Creek. She always enjoyed Art Classes all through her school years. After her children were grown she decided to return to her passion for painting, signing up for a class as a birthday present to herself from local artists to learn techniques and develop her own style. The mediums she uses are Acrylics, Oils, or Watercolor. She especially loves to create realistic paintings of beautiful landscapes, flowers & wildlife. She always takes her camera with me because she believes that you never know when you are going to see something that will inspire you to paint it. She has taken lots of art workshops and classes for the past 20 years locally & across the United States and Europe with many famous
artists. The artists she has studied with include Charles White, Gary Bergren, Leslie Wilson, Myrna Wacknov, Nancy Collins, Sandi Delahanty, Nicholas Simmons, Kathleen Conover, Janet Rogers & Cheng-Khee Chee. She has won many awards in Contra Costa County Fair and Alameda
County Fair, and Art Assn. Shows. Wendy Oliver is an active member of Alamo Danville Art Assn., Blackhawk Gallery, Las Juntas Artists; East Bay Artists Guild, CWA & Gallery Concord, Toll Bridge Tolers & Professional Women’s Business Exchange.
