Lorraine Rimmelin

Lorraine Rimmelin is a New York based artist residing on the South Shore of Long Island in Mastic Beach.

Lorraine uses an explosion of colors and shapes to capture the likeness of flowers, animals and landscapes. She finds juxtapositions in groups of flowers or in the shapes of a sunrise. She then captures the essence of these images as she develops her paintings.

Lorraine is a signature member of the North East Watercolor Society. She has had her watercolor paintings displayed in several prestigious galleries including a one woman show in the Windows Gallery in New York City which showcased her ‘Blood Flowers’ collection

She is a much sought after educator who has a friendly & easy style of sharing her watercolor skills in the classroom.
