About the Author
Dorothy Slikker is an experienced fine artist creating original oil paintings for collectors and art enthusiasts across Nevada. She is the founder of Slikker’s Fine Art Studio and the author of “My Art Walk To the Contemporary Masters.”
“I’ve wanted to be an artist all my life, ever since I was a 13,” recalls Slikker. “I painted a tree in water colors and it took first place in the cafeteria contest. I got such a thrill inside the body and that has never left me. My mother had married a man who told me –No, you can’t take art!– It was forbidden, which only made me want to do it more.”
Blending acrylics and oils in the style of her mentor Robert Warren, Slikker skillfully captures natural beauty. Her works range from realistic to realistic-impressionistic, portraits, landscapes and animals.
Slikker is passionate about teaching new painters the beauty and history of art and passing on her skills to aspiring artists. She also works with seniors to help fill their retirement years with art, as well as young children.
