Darlene Morgensen works in an impressionist style with pastels, acrylics, and/or oil on canvas or board, and paints with plenty of emotional intensity.  Darlene's complex skies and sunsets are powerful, combining strong colors with subtle, virtuoso strokes and tonal fields.  

She is Scottish, Irish, and Comanche mix, and was raised a Texan who has lived and painted in some of the most remote areas of Alaska and Washington State.  The magical environments of her former homes in Alaska and the Olympic Peninsula served as rich subject matter. 

Recently, the award-winning Ms. Morgensen established a new residence on Florida's gulf coast.  The Sunshine State has brought a new dimension to her outstanding artistic talent; her paintings are rich, luminous in color, and her energy sky high.
