Urania Christy Tarbet
Urania's official art education began at Pasadena College in Southern California;
followed by two years of intense studies at Otis Art Institute, Los Angeles
and the Sergei Bongart School of Art, Santa Monica. Workshops with nationally
known artists: Joyce Pike, Albert Handell, Daniel Greene, and Claude Ellington
served to hone and refine her skills. Her practical education came from traveling.
"Travel and painting throughout the United States and Europe has increased my love for the joy of plein air painting. Most of my major works stem from field sketches in plein air."
Urania Christy Tarbet's work has been exhibited
in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, New Orleans, France, Canada, Taiwan
and Mexico. She has conducted pastel and oil workshops throughout the United
States, Canada, Italy and Scotland. Her work is included in ten how-to-art
books; and has been the subject of many articles published in the American
Artist, The Artist's Magazine, Art
Review, Leisure Painter, Designer's
Illustrated and Sacramento Home. Urania is represented in print by Aaron Ashley,
