Art Show: Olivia Hoffman

Opening Reception: Sunday, August 22, 4:00pm

Born in Philadelphia and currently based in Bath, Maine, Olivia G. Hoffman has been painting and drawing since 1994. Olivia has spent her life critically observing her environment and thus honing her skills with oil and acrylic paint in portraiture. More recently, Olivia has been experimenting with mixed media landscapes of the places she loves most of all — from Hermit Island to Bath, Maine.

Olivia is inspired by the complexity and simplicity of natural beauty, and dedicated to shining a spotlight on the silent, happy moments; when we disconnect and stare into nature. 

Olivia is inspired by the attitude of Expressionist Van Gogh, the color and movement of Impressionist Monet, and the use of shadow from the great Caravaggio. No matter her medium, Olivia’s work possesses a painterly, layered, ethereal quality that resonates with the viewer and often showcases xher organic process in the finished piece.

Olivia has been showing her work in galleries from Colorado to Maine and has sold many works. Some of her larger pieces are currently showing at the Think Tank in Portland, Maine. She is thrilled to join the artist community in Small Point as her style evolves.
