Artist Bio

Ruth Collier

I first became interested in painting years ago by watching Bob Ross videos.  More recently I saw a simple palm tree painting in Newberry which I attempted to recreate.  As a self-taught painter, I use acrylics and mainly do abstracts. I like to try new things that can be quickly painted.  I am an active member of the art league and volunteer to hang my paintings in the public galleries.

This exhibit space allows for expanded displays with series or mixed multiple pieces by the artist. It hosts a minimum of 6-8 pieces but can accommodate as many as 12 pieces per month. Wall hanging and 3D artwork may be included in this exhibit.
