About Victoria Bishop

Victoria’s love of nature and the outdoors inspires much of her work. She enjoys observing the beauty inherent in the natural world and sharing this with others through her artwork, taking the time to understand and showcase details that are often missed in the hustle and bustle of today’s modern world.
While primarily using watercolor to paint nature, she also enjoys sketching, sculpting, and painting portraits. Capturing the emotion of the moment. Seeing that sparkle in the eyes. Capturing the personality within the portrait is what makes her
enjoy this other facet of her work.
Victoria uses a variety of watercolor techniques to create the desired look. This includes dry brushing, as well as
glazing techniques where she will build up many layers. Always experimenting with new ideas and reinforcing old methods to continue grow as an artist every day.
