Doreen Montis

Doreen Montis is a representational oil painter who loves to paint images with a touch of charm.  She is best known for her expressive animal paintings which have become highly sought after.  Doreen spends time studying animal behavior through nature videos, photographs and in person.   She applies color theories to her paintings and prefers to keep the backgrounds clean and simplified so that the subject is clearly the focus.  She wants the viewer to see the expressions and beauty of animals that they may not see up close or in person.   Her artwork and photography have received several rewards and recognitions.  Doreen is a guest artist at The Ashby Inn and a member of The Artists in Middleburg.
