Paul Niemiec

by Sarah Judson March 12, 2011

Artist Paul Niemiec works in watercolor, mixed media, oils, etching and drypoint as well as making his own paper from linen, which is stronger than cotton paper. He offers both beginning and advanced classes in his Running Wind Studio in upstate New York. "Painting for me is an emotional experience about a real place, memory or feeling... I strive for honest, unadorned, personal statements about the beauty of life and the land that is so often taken for granted. I seek simplicity, understatement, substance and emotional truth in my work. I want to be the best observer and dreamer that I can be in my life."
