Virginia Blackstock
About
Influenced by her many years in Dance and Theatre, Virginia Blackstock combines a flowing rhythmic movement with eloquent design and bold use of color ranging from the dynamic to the subtle. Her extensive travels have enriched her vision and expanded her awareness. Painting to share these experiences and feelings, Blackstock combines highly polished techniques with inner visual representation of the beauty that surrounds her.
In Virginia’s respected career she painted a Delta mural honoring Cattlemen that is 17 feet by 40 feet which she enjoyed adding to her portfolio of respected work. She taught workshops in four states and has juried numerous competitions. She received “Who’s Who in Art” Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.
Today Virginia lives on the Western Slope of Colorado and continues to enjoy capturing the beauty for which Colorado is famous.
‘Art and dance are the music of my soul; they help me celebrate my love of life.’
