Using expressive color, Vianna interprets the world around her to tell a visual story. Whether she is working in pastel, oil or watercolor she’s inspired to capture a moment by painting light and atmosphere to express emotion. Vianna believes painting is a journey of creative study and encourages her students to learn the fundamentals so they express their own artistic voice.
She exhibits regularly in national juried shows including the Pastel Society of America, The Portrait Society of America, Oil Painters of America, the American Impressionist Society, The Michigan Watercolor Society and The Adirondacks Watercolor Society. She has acted as a juror in shows including the Pastel Society of the West Coast, The International Association of Pastel Societies, and the Figurative/Portrait Juror for the Pastel Journal’s Pastel 100 competition.
Vianna is a popular and passionate instructor and teaches workshops nationally and abroad. She has a BS in Education from Eastern Michigan University but credits her art education to books, long hours at the easel, and the generosity of talented friends. Vianna is a signature member of the Pastel Society of America and has achieved Distinguished Pastellist status in the Pastel Society of the West Coast. She was inducted into the International Association of Pastel Societies Master Circle in 2011 and achieved Eminent Pastelist status in 2015 and earned signature member status in the Michigan Watercolor Society in 2020 and signature membership in the Great Lakes Pastel Society in 2022. https://www.viannaszabo.com/ | Vianna Szabo YouTube
