August Presenting Artist - Nadine Rippelmeyer
The presenting artist for the August ANA meeting at Arts Center of the Ozarks will be
ANA member Nadine Rippelmeyer. Nadine says of her art; “I love texture and color! My
goal is to create a mood that is positive, comforting, peaceful, joyful, humorous, or
inspiring. My work is constantly evolving as I explore new techniques, mediums or styles.
I find that my clients are varied and have different preferences: some prefer my
abstracts, some my impressionist pieces, and others gravitate towards my humor or
inspirational works.”
“Coming from a very artistic family, I was inspired by my many relatives who expressed
their creativity through hair creations, building and carpentry, painting, and home decor.
My inspiration comes primarily from my faith and my family. I also find that I use my
background in dance, nursing, music, and theater to more fully explore each subject that
I paint. Having traveled and lived in South America, Asia, and Europe, I delight in varied
landscapes, cultures, and people.”
“Although I now teach many mediums, I most enjoy working with water based media and
pencil and most recently photography. Even though mostly selftaught, I voraciously read
art journals, magazines, and books gathering new ideas at every turn! I currently sell to
clients worldwide. In 2008-2009, my work was shown in Las Vegas and New York, in Hot
Springs, AR, and in Northwest Arkansas.”
In 2007, Nadine had the honor of being chosen by Art.com as one of approximately 20
US artists in a pilot original art marketing program based on the wide appeal of her work.
Prints of Nadine’s work are sold worldwide. Nadine continues to be a member of the
Fayetteville, AR Chamber of Commerce, numerous artist groups, and will soon be
featured on The National Association of Professional Women's Site. Nadine loves trying
new techniques and styles while maintaining works that capture color, texture, and her
love of life.
Though she exhibits in national galleries, one may also find her work locally at Art
Emporium and House Special Interiors in Fayetteville and Scott Frame and Art in Rogers.
In addition to painting commissions, Nadine teaches art to all ages, teaches art
marketing seminars, paints live for galas, fundraisers, church services, etc., and leads
art trips nationally and abroad. www.nadinerippelmeyerart.com
