Nancy Coffelt
Sunbathing cats, golfing poodles and curious spotted dogs, guitar toting cows and irreverent waiters catering to myriad animals are but a few of the scenes created so brilliantly by nationally recognized artist Nancy Coffelt.
Some sport hats or bowties, others wear bikinis or an evening dress while relaxing over a glass of fine wine. But most of all, the characters in Coffelt’s world give the viewer a half-lidded gaze that is sure to bring a smile to their face.
The oil pastel medium she uses allows her to achieve the vivid color and strong contrasts while the creamy pencils leave a very durable surface. Unlike regular pastels, they leave a rich sheen that won’t wear off.
From the very young to the very mature, from the art novice to the serious art collector, Nancy Coffelt’s work appeals to everyone.
