Profile Information

About Me:

Artist working in a wide variety of mediums in a contemporary realistic style who occasionally lapses into folk art for fun and alla prima/impasto for practice! For more photos of paintings, bio, contact info please go to my web page at sondravanhuss.com.

About My Art:

My art is a constantly evolving struggle between my classical desires and my folk art roots! I love many styles of painting and find myself torn between what do I paint today? Even my choice of music is eclectic and schizophrenic from classical to country western. I live my life surrounded with folk art in one part of my house and classical European style in my formal area. I have a blog at www.vanhussfineart.blogspot.com where I post many "works in progress (WIP) where those that are interested can follow along with the painting as it evolves.

Favorite Music:

Classical, Country Western, Pop, Irish Folk

Favorite Films:

Shirley Valentine - love thrillers, drama, good comedy and sci-fi

Favorite Artists:

So many - Loran and Gene Speck, Carol Marine, Robert Wee's early works, Barbara Kacicek's fruit, Hollingsworth's silver, Dutch Masters

At 11:23am on June 23, 2009, Paul O. Wilson said…: Sondra, I see Holden on the map.The farthest north I've been in Maine was Belfast. I'd like to see more of that area some day. Castine, Blue Hill, Deer Isle.One of my wife's favorite writers was E.B White who had a salt water farm in Brooklyn.He wrote some great short stories and articles for the New Yorker, co-authored the revised book on "Elements of Style." My parents
honeymooned in a place called Camp Eggemoggen, no doubt on the
Eggemoggen Reach. This was back around 1937. Love the Farnsworth. Saw a fine show there a few years back,"Capturing Nureyev, James Wyeth Paints the Dancer." "Seven Deadly Sins" is coming to the Brandywine River Museum here in Chester County in the Fall. My favorite in that series called "The Warning," pictures a sea gull flying close to the waves of the sea. The museum shop at the Brandywine has a very large framed and signed giclee of that for almost $1500. If I had the means, I would buy it!I live quite near Chadds Ford in Chester County where the Wyeths live. My wife's great aunt and James Wyeth helped start the museum. The building was an old grist mill sitting on the banks of the Brandywine River. The architect did a beautiful job with this old brick mill in converting it to a museum venue. It houses all three generations of Wyeths, N.C., Andrew and James.By the way, not far from the Farnsworth (if it's still there) is one of the best restaurants in Maine Called "Primo." It sits on the border between Rockland and Owl's Head. I think the constant rain we've had all during this month has finally abated. Have a great day!

At 5:04pm on May 8, 2009, Wren said…: Thank you very much. Considering how different we work! But I love still lives and yours are so good. I especially like your apples.

At 10:45am on May 2, 2009, Lesley Grindlay said…: Hi Sondra, thanks for the kind comments. The still life paintings are painted in 3 to 4 hours each day, the point behind painting these little studies is to loosen up.

Beautiful work Sondra, wow!

Fondest regards Sidney Chambers
