NANCY FAHRLANDER LINDSAY - b. 1948, Lincoln, Nebraska
Creating art has been a life-long
journey for me. As a child, growing up in Nebraska, my father, Emil Fahrlander's
drawings and my grandfather, Hermann Fahrlander's woodcarvings inspired me. My mother,
Mernie Gustafson Fahrlander always
encouraged me to be creative and provided me with plenty of art supplies. As a
teacher, she had many creative interests. We were always experimenting with new
projects; pottery, mosaics, batik, weaving and beading.
Over the years, the landscape has become my inspiration, whether it is the
endless Nebraska horizon, the deep woodlands and river valleys of Iowa or the
rugged Mediterranean coastline. I prefer to paint on location (en plein air) and
complete a painting in one session (alla prima). Wherever I set up my easel, I
always make friends. People, especially children are immediately drawn to watch
me. Painting outside gives me the opportunity to inspire those
who have never seen an artist at work.
During the Iowa winter, I work in my studio on larger paintings and private or
corporate commissions. I’m constantly experimenting with new texture, color
palettes and subject matter. I love the challenge of a new project.
