Torrie Smiley, originally from West Texas, now residing and painting in the foothills of North Carolina. I am primarily a self taught artist who paints using oil, acrylic, watercolor, and pastel. I paint what I feel at the time using the medium that will best capture the feel and look I am trying to achieve. I have become known for my different renditions of pears, ranging from realism to colorful impressionism. I have won awards and became an EBSQart Juried Artist with my Martini Series. I have won awards both locally and in EBSQ art shows. My paintings are now in private collections throughout the United States, Europe, Canada, and Australia.
My paintings are available for purchase through my website: www.torriesmiley.com
