Artist-Profile Lois DeWitt. Discover the extraordinary craftsmanship and meticulous precision of Lois DeWitt, an accomplished visual artist, author, and educator, showcasing her collection at Go Native Gallery. Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and a Master of Fine Arts from the prestigious Pratt Institute in New York, Lois expertly transforms familiar domestic subjects and natural environments into deeply observed studies of light, geometric form, and balanced composition. Working primarily with fine colored pencils and soft pastels on premium, archival, heavy paper, her meditative, technical approach layers fine lines of pure pigmentation to build a striking, velvety depth that behaves more like paint than ink. Her highly collectible signature pieces—including her renowned Domestics and Interior series—frequently juxtapose hard-edged geometric structures —such as checkerboard tablecloths, woven baskets, and architecture—with soft, fluid botanical forms, such as her acclaimed hollyhocks and mallows. All original works include professional museum-grade archival protection to ensure lifelong preservation.
