Pauline SwansonGeneseo, IL Angelsite@Geneseo.net
Pauline Swanson is a life-long resident of
Geneseo and a 40-year member of Geneseo Art League, as well as being a
homemaker, wife, mother (8 times), grandmother (15) and great grandmother
(6/another due soon).
Excluding early childbearing/rearing years and
those when Pauline worked as a District Manager's secretary in the Quad Cities
for 10+ years, she has been very active in Art League, serving 2 terms as
president and several as secretary; for a number of years, it has been her
function to chair or co-chair Art League's Christmas Forest and the annual
Maple City Show.
Pauline's primary medium is oil; however, she
has produced a few watercolors as well as trying her hand at sculpting. Very early (around the age of 4 or
5), Pauline began to explore art by drawing and was - by circumstances -
confined to that medium for all the years until high school art classes.
There are few subjects that she does not
find fascinating, but her "favorite" is people; she
is especially fond of children even though they are the most difficult to
capture.
Though there never seems to be enough time to
paint nearly as much as she would like, Pauline is committed to producing as
much artwork as she can possibly fit into a busy schedule; painting is a
"necessity" for her.....something she 'needs' to do.
Pauline has accepted commissions, especially for
portraiture; and has - just often enough to keep her motivated - sold her
artwork, as well as gifting it, particularly to family members who admired a
certain painting.
Commissions and/or sales can be arranged by
contacting the artist at her email: angelsite@geneseo.net
