Visiting Artist

Bill Lane

Visiting Artist from September 1st to October 29th, 2023

Artist Bio:

At age 7, Bill started drawing with Liz Harvey in, what was then, the Newport Art Association. Later in life, he started watercolor painting at the Attleboro Arts Museum in the early 90’s. However, running his own graphic design studio pulled him in lots of different directions, mostly away from painting as dictated by his ‘paying’ clients. Bill is an Exhibiting Artist Member of the Providence Art Club as well as a Signature Artist Member in the New England Watercolor Society and the Rhode Island Watercolor Society and an artist member of the Copley Society of Art in Boston.

Artist Statement:

“Everyday scenes intrigue me the most; be it a barren landscape, boats in the harbor or city life on a busy day. I observe how the light plays into the scene and reflects off the subjects. I work to capture that light while enhancing my point-of-interest in the painting.”
