Gorgeous 9'x12" giclee prints on archival watercolor paper from an original watercolor painting of Ankeny National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon on a cold winter evening  |Magic Realism  | Impressionism.  

Giclee print of an original 9x12 in watercolor painting by Olga V. Walmisley-Santiago. 

The Ankeny National Wildlife Refuge is situated in open farmland near the confluence of the Santiam and Willamette rivers in the middle of the broad Willamette Valley.  The Willamette Valley, with its mild, rainy winter climate, is an ideal environment for wintering waterfowl.  When you walk through the fields in mid winter, with the damp seeping through your clothes, the muddy ground sucking on your boots, and the cold wet air stinging your cheeks, the water and air are alive with noisy birds.  It's magical. 

The original watercolors painting was inspired by the well known, and extremely talented photographer Bill Leach, who graciously granted me permission to use his beautiful photograph for inspiration.  Thank you Bill!  https://billleachphotography.com/

►ABOUT THE ARTIST◄

Olga V. Walmisley-Santiago, a British artist based in Independence, Oregon, is known for her vibrant acrylic landscape and still life paintings filled with color, movement and detail, and watercolors that dance with reflections and light.  She celebrates the beauty of nature and brings out the “hidden colors” in the depths of a river, the sparkle of a waterfall, or the edge of a leaf.  Her impressionistic paintings create a world of “magic realism” with dream-like colors and uplifting tones.   Olga was born and raised in London, England,, and has strong ties to Spain and Mexico, having lived in London,  Spain, Ohio, and Kentucky before moving to Oregon.   These layers of culture and experience lend her a unique artistic perspective, and a sense of life as a constant exploration and adventure.  As she continues on her exploration of Oregon and beyond, she constantly takes photos, to later recapture some of the essence of a fleeting moment of beauty in a special place.  She highlights the magic of natural beauty with colorful paintings of mountains, rivers, flowers, fields, waterfalls and coastal scenes, and the creatures and plants that live there.
