Award-winning watercolorist, Fealing Lin began painting in her native Taiwan. After moving to the U.S., she continued her studies as a protégé to watercolorist and art historian Professor Verna Wells. Lin’s art combines realism, impressionism, and semi-abstract techniques. “My passion for watercolor,” says Lin, “comes from the opportunity it gives me to be totally spontaneous.” Lin is an instructor at Brand Art Studios at the Brand Library in Glendale, Pasadena Community College, and at her professional art studio. In June 2005, Lin was the featured artist at the Descanso Gardens Gallery and exhibited her works the entire month of November 2004 at Alhambra City Hall Gallery. Her works have been judged in national exhibits including the Western Colorado Watercolor Society; Audubon Artists 61st Annual Exhibition 2003 in New York; and Watercolor West National 2003 and 2004. Her painting, “Lady in Red,” appeared in International Artist Magazine’s book How Did You Paint That?
Scripps College Fine Arts Foundation, created in 1935, hosts this lecture as part of its mission to stimulate public interest in art and to raise funds to foster art education and programming at the College.
