Dinah Worman’s landscape paintings are instantly recognizable for their clarity and depth. Light is everywhere. It filters through the trees and streams, between the clouds. She is able to retain this vitality because she is continually renewing her vision. “I work to press beyond method and into a flow of creative instinct; using pastel, oil, acrylic or printmaking to express myself with unusual compositions and expanding vision.” Her work ranges from representational to imaginative variations taken from a creative viewpoint of man and his relationship to the landscape. “I am looking for two things: I want to see the bones of the landscape found in the openness of an arid climate or the stacked fields of cultivated land. I also love the compositional elements of a cluttered, close scene that allows me to treat the landscape much like a still life. This is especially true of my aerial views and large foreground pieces. I’m looking for the compositional elements of both of these types of landscape paintings rather than the beauty of individual objects.” Dinah has been a featured artist at the Coors Western Art Exhibit and Sale in 2016, 2015 and 2014, and in 2013 her oil painting History of a Field was chosen as Best of Show. The honor was featured in Western Art & Architecture’s May/June 2013 issue. She has earned the designation of Master Pastellist from the Pastel Society of America. Her work has been featured in several publications including Southwest Art, The Pastel Journal and The Artists Magazine, and in books including Art Journey America: Landscapes and Art Journey: New Mexico. Dinah has also done a public installation for display in Taos. Dinah K. Worman was chosen to be the featured artist in the upcoming 2017 Coors Western Art Exhibition & Sale in Denver, Colorado.
