Hej!

Welcome to my colorful world of contemporary paintings. My name is Tina Rawson and I am a Swedish-American artist who is passionate about creating vibrant paintings that captivate and capture memories. As a female artist and educator, I believe in the power of art to connect people and spark meaningful conversations.

Thanks for coming

I am so glad that you enjoyed the class at The Scandinavian Cultural Center on Swedish Folk Art. Please come to the fun Midsummer Madness Art Retreat in Byfield at Adelynrood on June 15th. Prepare to enjoy a wonderful time creating, learning a more fluid folk art flower style and enjoying Swedish Midsummer with us! If you buy the retreat by 5/12 you will get a discount! It's from 9 - 5:00 so there will be plenty of time to relax, and paint. Thank you for your kind words!

  • Fun event to attend with a friend. Tina was a great teacher

  • The hands-on painting activity (was the best part)

  • It was fun and relaxing

  • Enjoy painting. Nice to learn about Scandinavian folk painting and do one

  • The teacher was friendly and knowledgeable. She provided all the necessary supplies for her class as well as examples. My classmates were a creative and fun group.

Color, movement and joy sum up my work. I love being outside in nature and capturing that moment. Right now I'm exploring the sea. Mythology excites me as does painting portraiture. Lovely landscapes move me and capturing the right color combination to make something leap off the page is the goal. I love to teach art too!

 

I offer classes in:

Folk Art

Kids Art

Workshops, private lessons and more

Please click Artwork Archive to buy a beautiful piece of art online, shop here for smaller pieces and merch, visit my studio at 14 Cedar St #319B in Amesbury, or see a show. I will bring my art to your home too so you can play with what works where.  

Prints can be bought here too by emailing me, take a look here/ And at the shop you can also buy smaller lessons, gift cards and more.  I love sharing my art with people so don't hesitate to ask, or reach out if you'd like a commissioned piece - the ultimate gift.

 

Have a colorful day!

Tina
