About the Artist

Approaches to Painting

Membership

Duemler has incorporated plein air techniques into her way of painting. She finds that by painting from direct observation she can better express the feeling of light, colors and shadows - the feeling of the place. When not teaching, Duemler travels throughout the United States, creating studies of the places she visits. These later provide her with a foundation for larger paintings.
