About the Artist. Arlene Wright-Correll (1935- ___), popular American award winning Artist, published author & avid gardener, at the age of 68, decided to pick up her paint brushes again after 54 years and paint, in mostly gouache watercolors and pastels, the flowers, herbs and fruits that grow at Home Farm Herbery in Munfordville, KY. She is a certified EBSQ artist, a Certified SCKA&CG artist, a member of the National Museum of Women's Art in Washington, DC.
Though she paints in all mediums, she likes to use the Gouache paints, which are a heavy, opaque watercolor paint, sometimes called body color, producing a less wet-appearing and more strongly colored picture than ordinary watercolor. Occasionally, she will paint something from her world travels especially of Scotland, Ireland, or the Mediterranean. She is fond of those old memories.
Her original paintings are sold quite quickly and one can always try and pick up whatever current one she is working on. The amazing thing about this "young" artist is that as a mother of 5 & the grandmother of 5, she is also a cancer and stroke survivor who is able to strive forward each and everyday to welcome the beauty of this small planet. She is the resident artist and art teacher at Avalon Stained Glass Studio. She is also a porcelain and china painter.
Her favorite motto is a quote by Ruth Smelter., "You have not lived a perfect day, even though you have earned your money, unless you have done something for someone who cannot repay you."
“Tread the Earth Lightly” and in the meantime.. may your day be filled with… Peace, Light and Love,
Arlene Wright-Correll
