Rae Ecklund paints in the traditional
style of watercolor with the intent of expressing the subjects loosely
and allowing the medium to offer its own surprises which watercolorists
refer to as “forced accidents”. She is as comfortable with
portraits and landscapes as she is with architectural interpretations.
Much of Rae Ecklund’s art education was from instruction abroad. Her formal education was at the Academy of Art College, San Francisco and continuing workshops in the field of watercolor and oil paining. |
Rae Ecklund has worked as an illustrator
for advertising and design studios with the wine industry, resort
hotels and publishing being the bulk of Rae Ecklund’s work. She has been an active member in the San Francisco Society of Illustrators and the California Watercolor Society for a number of years. Some of her watercolors currently hang in the Bellagio Resort Hotel in Las Vegas. Rae Ecklund has received Communication Arts Annual Award of Excellence - 1995, 1999, and 2000. |
