Irene Pruitt - Fine Artist
Member Since: 12/06/2009
Irene Paz Pruitt
Irene Pruitt grew up in Northern Virginia, the older daughter of parents who recently emigrated from Poland. Art, in the form of painting, sculpture and music, was highly valued in her family. Her maternal grandmother and aunt were both artists, and the house was always decorated with their paintings. Her father had studied Art History in Poland, and facilitated her interest in fine art through frequent trips to Washington museums. After graduating from Georgetown University, Irene began to paint in her free time, and briefly studied at the Art League School in Alexandria, VA. She loves to spend time in nature, where she finds her inspiration to paint through observation of clouds, shadows, and light effects. Currently, she and her husband, Robbie, live in Reston, Virginia, where she works as a Mental Health Therapist. She continues to enjoy spending time in the outdoors and painting.
