About Me
- Nancy Hogan Armour
- "As far back as I can remember, I was always drawing or painting." "I want each of my paintings to create the mood, realism and intensity I felt while painting them. The public reaction to my fine art shows that I am doing just that." "I spend a great deal of time observing and enjoying the diverse islands in which I live. I love traveling to other areas in order to study the landscape,ocean, and wildlife, as well as focusing local environments. I feel this is deeply important in expanding my capabilities as an artist and person. Living and painting the wild horses ,ocean and wildlife of Assateague and Chincoteague Island has expanded my love of painting for the last twenty eight years.The diversity in my maritime paintings has intensified from living on Eastern Shore and in the tropical Caribbean. The few years I spent living on a sailboat has inspired me to concentrate recently on a series of waves, seascapes and tropical ocean studies. Now retired and living full time on Vieques Island, Puerto Rico has inspired my painting to a new level I have not felt since I was learning to paint".
