As a child, Valarie Wolf was inspired to paint when she visited the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and saw a nearly life-sized Landseer painting of horses.
“Oils are my media of choice,” said Wolf, of Irvine, Calif. “I cannot resist the way they blend and the richness they impart to a painting. A favorite aspect of using these amazing paints is the infinite mixture of colors that can be achieved.”
A graduate of California State University with a bachelor’s degree in art, Wolf is a full member of the American Academy of Equine Art, Women Artists of the West, Oil Painters of America, the American Impressionists Society and the Southern California Plein Air Painters Association.
