About the Artist:
Mira Fink is an accomplished artist, educator and naturalist. Specializing in landscapes, she is known for her richly colored art which captures the beauty of the Hudson Valley and reflects her deep love of nature. An avid hiker, the exhibited works are inspired by her walks in the Shawangunks, quiet moments of peace and connection.

She has been teaching art (and natural science) for over twenty-five years and exhibiting art in juried and solo shows for over thirty. Her work is in private collections nationally. She studied painting at the Woodstock School of Art, then continued her education by taking classes with prominent watercolor artists and also botanical illustrators from the NY Botanical Gardens. She later became a certified teacher after earning a BFA in painting and a MS in Education from SUNY New Paltz. Her illustrations have appeared in literary journals, natural science publications, magazines and recently, in a book of nature poetry.

Mira loves watercolor because the media is excellent for portraying light, transparency and color found in nature. She says, “My art is about the vividness of color, the energy of living things and what happens when you slow down long enough to truly see and appreciate it.”
