| Professor Noah Verrier |
Professor Verrier has
been painting since childhood and earned his MFA in Studio Art at Florida State
University. He currently is a working artist, and adjunct Professor of Painting
and Drawing at Florida State University. His work has been featured in many
exhibits in the United States, and abroad. Professor Verrier was recently
featured in New American Paintings #111 as one of 40 of the nation’s top
painters among 800. He was also awarded the Emerging Artist of the year award
in 2007 by the Von Liebig Museum of fine art and the Naples National Art
Festival.
Many private collectors
have invested in his work, and his popularity continues to grow by word of
mouth. Professor Verrier is an artist because he feels it is what he is meant
to do. He says “If I don’t make art, I
feel incomplete.” Some of his influences include contemporary artists Jennifer
Bartlett, Rackstraw Downes, and the spiritual landscape painters of the past;
Inness, Turner, and The Hudson River School. His philosophy is that “art is
about emotion and beauty.”
