About the Artist

Renee Piskorski

Artist of Wildlife and Nature

"The wild places and its many beautiful creatures have always been my inspiration.  I hope to convey through my paintings, the sense of wonder, truth, and peace of the natural world."

Creativity came naturally for Renee' Piskorski, who grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming under the talented  influence of her father.

Nurtured by the time spent outdoors camping, hiking and fishing, fueled her love of nature, and moved her to take up pencil and brush.

From grizzlies and elk in the wilderness, to the songbirds in her own backyard, much time is spent just observing wildlife.  Learning about their habits, behaviors, movements and gestures, have been invaluable to her work.

Striving to capture the setting, feeling and atmosphere of the field, Renee' paints exclusively in oil, on location and in the studio.

Although her art studies have been mostly independent, Renee' is fortunate to have received instruction from many exceptional artists, including Clyde Aspevig,  The most important lesson learned is painting from life.

Her work is included in collections throughout the U.S., Canada, Japan and Europe.

Renee' is represented by Deselms Fine Art in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
