About Wendy Gordin

Wendy has been painting for 30 years. She began her formal training at the California Art Institute in Thousand Oaks, CA where she studied portraiture and figure painting. Wendy has had the opportunity to study with numerous artists around the world. She is constantly growing, and improving her skills daily. Wendy has won many awards for her oil paintings. She was a finalist in the Artistic Excellence Competition in Southwest Art magazine. She is an active member of the Westlake Village Art Guild, the Latimer Art Club, and the Portrait Society.

Wendy feels that art is an integral part of who she is. She wakes up in the morning and looks forward to painting. She sees everything as light, shadow, shape and color. She finds that it’s not the finished painting that is exciting, but the whole process of applying the paint and mixing the colors, and seeing the image emerge from a blank canvas.

Wendy has recently moved to Reno, NV where a whole new world of art has opened up to her.
