About the Artist

Howard Averill is a studio-based oil painter who has always been fascinated by distant views, storm transitions, and other changing light conditions. His landscape compositions focus on moments when these factors impact the mood and drama of the underlying scene. In addition to creating a familiar or desirable place, the pieces generate curiosity, encouraging exploration and discovery within the picture plane.

Howard’s work is published and exhibited internationally. He is currently Artist Pro Tem at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia.
