Denise Dumont

by Sarah Judson January 16, 2012

 East coast painter Denise Dumont has a knack for imparting depth and drama into small plein air sketches. The ones shown here are all 6"x8" but contain enough accurate information to make them read much bigger than they really are. She will be offering a 3-day workshop entitled "Mastering Value and Composition" in September at the Rehoboth Art League, in the seaside resort town of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Denise received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Parsons School of Design in New York City. She studied further at the School of Visual Arts and frequented the studios of the Art Students League. Her work has been largely influenced by Edward Hopper, Edouard Vuillard and Fairfield Porter. In addition to the seashore scenes shown here, she also paints cityscapes, townscapes and rural landscapes up and down the mid-Atlantic coast.
