Once Upon A Time!

Polly Berlin, Artist

 Polly Berlin has a vision to express herself as a romantic painter of her surroundings. 

“Painting from nature in “Plein Air” defines how I paint. I feel the passion to paint when I can capture the colors and the scenes of the outdoors. In my studios in New Hampshire and Florida; I paint on a larger scale and devote much of my time to paint miniatures.”

Polly’s style can vary from representative, impressionist to abstract using the medium of acrylic, oil or alcohol ink. 

Polly is an award winner artist, conducts workshops, participates in outdoor shows and other art events. Her miniature paintings are in yearly exhibitions around US and Canada.
