Sylvia Kerschl - Nature Artist
Sylvia Kerschl grew up in Hamilton, Ontario and is a self taught artist.
Sylvia has, over the years, and still continues to take workshops with different artists. Her belief is that she will never stop to learn something new and this inspiration pushes through to the next painting. Sylvia works mainly in the studio capturing moments in time from photos taken or memories of places been. Her palette knife serves as her main tool of choice as she applies the paint thickly to canvas or wood panel. Her medium is oil and acrylic.
Sylvia draws her inspiration from her natural surroundings as well as the central and northern Ontario landscape. She is textural in her works and strives to achieve an emotion from the viewer that draws them into a part of her world. Active in her local arts community, her work is in collections throughout Canada.
Sylvia is currently a member of the Huntsville Art Society.
