About Britt Greenland:
Britt Greenland is a Seattle-based artist who finds inspiration in a wide variety of subjects including her travels by bicycle to Iceland, Austria, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Ireland and so on…. Her award-winning oil paintings are on the impressionistic side of realism- with Van Gogh-like brushstrokes in some cases—and often use warm/cool color contrast to convey warmth and sunlight. Since she enjoys painting small works while bicycle touring, backpacking, and boating, she designed a carbon fiber easel that can easily go wherever she goes. She is also creative mentor and coach- helping emerging artists find their way!
