After over a decade of

sight painting, and impressionist fine arts with bold color, brilliant light,
strong images and a movement and style uniquely her own bold vision of her
surroundings. Her work explores spontaneous approaches to expressionistic
landscapes and provocative, vivid profiles in portraits she renders.

talents, Reynolds has studied under contemporary masters including Ann Templeton,
Peggi Kroll-Roberts, Huihan Liu, Nancy Bush and Robert Johnson. Early
influences on her career include Wolf Kahn, Andrew Wyeth, Paul Gauguin, the
Blue Rider German expressionists as well as her post-graduate studies in France
and in her explorations of Europe.
Work done while faculty at

actively into the Austin arts. Viewing her present style preceding her national
plein air painting tour this summer will enable the community to gain a deeper
sense of the unique characteristics of her art now and anticipate new works at
her fall exhibit.

paint, 5% of Studio Zanne's exhibit proceeds will go
to the Hill Country Conservancy,

Love that you're giving 15% of the exhibit proceeds to Hill Country Conservancy. Very, very cool!
I proudly own a beautiful piece of artwork created by S'zanne. She has a wonderful sense of color and perspective, and from my first glimpse of this piece I knew I had to take it home with me. I love looking at it every day - thank you S'zanne!
