Wendy Warner is an American artist and naturalist who devoted her artwork to representing the light, movement and colors of the natural world. She worked primarily in impressionistic transparent watercolor, and actively created artwork her entire adult life until retiring her studio in 2022.
Born in Buffalo, NY, Wendy studied sculpture with Concita Scaravaglione at Sarah Lawrence College and painting with Jean Henrich.
Wendy continued to learn and refine the art of watercolor from Robert Blair, a prominent artist from the Buffalo area. She painted and traveled with Robert and his wife, Jeanette. She was active in the Buffalo art and social scene, and a devoted supporter of the Sierra Club.
Wendy lived for most of her adult life in western New York and traveled regularly to Vermont, and her art reflects the many moods and seasons of those hills, streams, and mountains. She also loved the American west, traveling to ranches in Arizona and Montana with her husband, Murray.
Her work has been included in numerous juried exhibitions including the Washington Watercolor Club at the Smithsonian in Washington DC, the Albright-Knox Gallery, the Butler Institute of American Art, the Hoyt Center for the Arts, the Pennsylvania Academy, the Philadelphia Watercolor Socidety, the Burchfield-Penney Art Center, and the Meibohm Fine Arts. Her work is in many private and corporate collections through the US and Germany.
