Eileen Anderson, Artist  
Eileen Anderson draws artistic inspiration from multiple natural terrains, ranging from the mountains to the sea. It is within nature itself that she can reach her happy medium – balancing both the abstract and tactical elements of the natural world, her role as an active observer and joyful participant within it, and her diverse skill set across an array of stylistic mediums including acrylics, pen and ink, and watercolor. The pallet knife is one of the tools Eileen frequently pulls out of her artistic arsenal as it affords her more creative freedom when conveying the beautiful texture of the birch trees she frequently paints, the contrasting colors that crown a mountain top and the vibrancy and undertones of the waves that wash in from a stormy sea.

Eileen studied art at the University of Connecticut and has been actively involved in the Mystic Art Festival, Lyme Art Association, Farmington Valley Arts Center, Wickford Art Association, Simsbury Open Art Studios, and Stockbridge Art Festival. Eileen's work has also been featured in numerous juried shows throughout New England. She is excited to present her solo exhibition featuring 35 handpicked paintings, opening at the Arts of Tolland on November 2, 2024 and on display through December 7, 2024. Her work is also available for viewing by private appointment at her studio in West Simsbury.
