Dot Burdin
Dorothy Burdin is primarily a painter of florals and landscapes. Turning to nature as a source of her ideas, she feels that the natural world around her provides the best images for her work. Her paintings are interpretative and representational with the use of delicate brush strokes and soft colors, which seem to reflect her personality. She has traveled extensively abroad, and her experiences are apparent throughout her work.
She graduated from Southern Illinois University in Art Education. Years ago, she formed her own art consulting company, providing quality artwork and art framing for corporations, professional offices, and residential interiors for twenty five years. She returned to painting with watercolors and studied with many well known artists such as: Don Dennis, Jack Meanwell, Ray Loos, Skip Lawrence, Homer Hacker, Zoltan Zaebo, Robert Fabe, Fredrick Graff, James Godwin Scott, Mitchell Tolle, Sandy Maudlin, Morton Solberg and Marilyn Hughie Phillips. She also studied with Tony Couch, Steve Rodgers, Mel Stabin and Janet Walsch. She is currently an active member with the Greater Cincinnati Watercolor Society. She has had several solo woman art shows in the Cincinnati area and her work is displayed in many private collections. Recently, she completed a nine painting abstract landscape commission for a private collector.
