A little about me
Hi! My name is Owie. I am the artist behind Owie’s ART.
My interest in arts was influenced by my father. He was a skilled artist and was quite good in drawing and painting. That I could draw a little was not strange to my friends back in my elementary school years. As years passed, my interest in arts only showed when situation called for it. At work, none of my colleagues even knew about it. Yet through the years, I developed a desire to paint – at least ONE painting was my dream. Then my husband handed me his father’s painting materials which he kept neatly for decades – oil paints, watercolor, used canvases, paint brushes, some may be older than I am. I started to paint! That “at least ONE painting” was followed by another, and many more.
Having no formal education in arts, I rely on my instinct and feelings. To improve my painting skills, I try to look at the famous fine artists’ masterworks. To be better, I read and watch some painting videos shared generously by the many contemporary fine artists on the internet. Watching artists paint, learning from their tips and advises, I was able to sort out what works for me, and feel where I adhere most in style, what I love more to paint.
I hope and wish that you who see my artworks will enjoy them, as much as I enjoy creating them.
All the best,
Owie Delfter


My Paintings ...
My paintings are nature inspired. I love to paint landscapes – mountains, trees, waterfalls. I am a bit experimental in painting, which is why my style varies a little. But one thing I desire and wish is that those who see my painting will experience peace and serenity, hope and love, awe and wonder. I work constantly to reaching that point. I may still be way to go, but I guess I am on the right path.

My "Studio" ...
I am almost always in my home “studio” – “studio” is enclosed in quotation marks since I don’t have a definite place when painting. My favorite is our kitchen. It is here where I get inspired by simply looking outside where miracles of nature take place every single moment.
