Louise B. Hafesh
United States
In 2001, after 25 years in the publishing industry, following my heart and lifelong desire, I began to study oil painting with several of the finest contemporary artists at the Ridgewood Art Institute, NJ; the Art Student's League in NYC; Arcuri Atelier, Erwinna, PA. and The Grand Central Academy of Art, NYC.
Today, an award-winning, contemporary realist painter and workshop instructor in-studio and on occasion at the Kaplan JCC and The Yard School of Art-Montclair Art Museum, my work has been featured in major one-woman and group shows, including at the National Arts Gallery, NYC, is in numerous private collections and foundations, and has been featured in national and international publications, including The Artist's Magazine, Connections Magazine and graced the cover of a Vivaldi CDentitled, "Venetian Dreams." I am represented by Design Domaine Gallery, Spring Lake, NJ; Artist Frame Gallery, Verona, NJ;
