Join us for our October 2020 meeting with Portrait Artist

Deirdre G. Shibano

Well known for her beautiful Landscape paintings in plein-air, Deirdre Shibano is also an award-winning artist, specializing in portraiture and figurative work. Her work is in private collections across the United States, and abroad.

Originally educated at the Art Students League in NYC, she received the Merit Scholarship Award for Excellence and The Ford Foundation Grant, among other noteworthy recognitions.

Art Critic, Brian Sherwin notes: “Artist Deirdre Shibano’s plein-air paintings are marked by an alluring sense of calm. Her work invites viewers to take a step back in order to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of nature. This wonderful sense of calm is carried over when Deirdre explores the human figure — her figure paintings offer a point of introspection. Her body of work is simply a joy to observe.”
