About Me

Wanda Pépin paints with a palette knife creating vivid, highly textured landscapes, abstracts and sculptural wall pieces.I am a professional internationally collected artist who paints primarily with a palette knife. My artwork hangs in private collections in Quebec, Australia, England, Mexico, France and soon will be hanging in Cyprus.I live and work from my studio in Southern Oregon. I suppose I'd be considered a self-taught artist, but I really credit the many interactions I've had with other artists who have inspired, mentored and befriended me throughout my career. I grew up in a rural area of Northern California and have always enjoyed creating whether drawing or painting.I’ve enjoyed art my whole life. As a professional artist, I've been doing commissioned paintings, art shows, festivals, private exhibitions, art merchandise and now I am selling my work online.While planning my career path I realized that all I wanted to do is paint, it is my true passion! A wonderful outcome of offering my work online is that my artwork is more affordable and is available to all. I always enjoy seeing people get a good deal on original art and because of that I plan to continue to make this work available on the internet.Find my artwork here: www.wandawonders.comYou can also find my commission pieces at http://www.yessy.com/wandawonders

My Interests

People's Choice Award for the 23rd Annual Artist Workshop Art Show:

I'd like to meet:

Art Lovers, art collectors, galleries that are looking for contemporary, impressionistic, abstract, and/or sculptural wall art. Designers and folks who would love to have a special commission piece for their home.I'd also love to meet Monet, Albert Einstein (His quote: Imagination is more important than knowledge.), and Abraham Lincoln. Sigh. . . that won't happen. . . not any time soon anyway. LOL

I love a variety of music. Soul, R&B, New age and classic rock are my favorite. I absolutely love to dance, especially free style.
